Description: This object specifies a severity threshold governing the generation of syslog messages corresponding to alarms. For example, if the value of this object is set to 'major', then the agent generates these a syslog message if and only if the severity of the alarm being indicated is 'major' or 'critical'. The value of '0' disables the generation of syslog messages corresponding to alarms.

Observe that this setting overrides the value of the ceAlarmFilterSyslogEnabled object.

This object affects syslog message generation only; that is, it does not have an effect on monitoring, history logging, and generation of notifications.

What is ceAlarmSyslogEnable?

A configurable severity threshold that controls which alarms cause the device to also emit a corresponding syslog message.
