What is tfAlarmText?

Holds a human-readable text description of the alarm, intended for display to an operator. It's the field an admin actually reads to understand what happened, complementing the more machine-oriented tfAlarmType, tfAlarmEventType, and tfAlarmProbableCause fields. For example, this might read "Interface eth0/1 link down" to give a NOC operator immediate context without decoding OID-based classification codes.
