• System alarms indicate a missing rescue configuration. System alarms are preset and cannot be
modified, although you can configure them to appear automatically in the J-Web interface display or
CLI display.
Alarm Severity Classes
Alarms on ACX Series routers have two severity classes:
• Major (steady red)—Indicates a critical situation on the router that has resulted from one of the
following conditions. A major alarm condition requires immediate action.
• One or more hardware components have failed.
• One or more hardware components have exceeded temperature thresholds.
• An alarm condition that is configured on an interface has triggered a critical warning.
• Minor (steady amber)—Indicates a noncritical condition on the router that, if left unchecked, might
cause an interruption in service or degradation in performance. A minor alarm condition requires
monitoring or maintenance.
A missing rescue configuration generates a minor system alarm.
