What is swAlarmMajorCategory?
This object controls whether major alarms are triggered when certain system events occur, such as power supply or fan failures. An operator can enable or disable major alarm reporting to manage alert thresholds and prevent alarm fatigue in environments with multiple potential failure points. A network administrator would check this setting when configuring alarm notification policy for a Fore Systems switch.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.4.1.1.1.4 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Switch-MIB::swAlarmMajorCategory
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.4.1.1.1.4.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> Fore-Switch-MIB::swAlarmMajorCategory.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.1.4.1.1.1.4.1 i <value>
SNMPv3 example:
snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> swAlarmMajorCategory.1
