Checking Active Alarms
The alarm information includes alarm type, alarm severity, and
a brief description for each active alarm on the device.
To view the active alarms, select Alarms in the J-Web interface,
or enter the following CLI show commands:

If a device has
active alarms and you have not displayed the View Alarms page, Alarms in the taskbar appears in red. After you view the
alarms, Alarms returns to white. If new alarms
become active, Alarms is red until you again
display the View Alarms page.

Alarms summary page. Click an alarm in the list of active alarms to
