| Description | An entry describing the general properties of a threshold
template.
The template is created using the cifthTemplateRowStatus
object. Prior to creating an entry in the table, the manager
should obtain a unique value of cifthTemplateIndex by reading
the cifthTemplateIndexNext object. The values of
cifthTemplateName and cifthTemplateNotifyHoldDownType must be
provided before activating the entry.
After creating an entry, thresholds can be defined for the
template by creating entries with the same value of
cifthTemplateIndex in the cifthThresholdTable. The template
can then be assigned to one or more interfaces using the
cifthTemplateIfAssignTable.
Once an entry has been activated, the value of
cifthTemplateName cannot be modified. In order to use a new
value of cifthTemplateName, a new template must be defined.
The values of cifthTemplateNotifyHoldDownType and
cifthTemplateNotifyHoldDownTime may be modified when the entry
is active. See the description clause of
cifthTemplateNotifyHoldDownType for further caveats on
modification of that object. |
