In a driver I've a String parameter that display a MAC address.
I need to alarm this parameter if a the MAC address is outside a specific range eg EC-96-70-FF-*
What should be the filter in the alarm template to alarm all the MAC ouside the range EC-96-70-FF-*?
I believe it is sufficient to add the allowed MAC range with * into the Normal severity of the alarm template and set a * into another severity. By result, if a MAC matches the normal severity, it will be excluded from the other severities.
When trying this on the Microsoft Platform driver, it shows following behaviour:
On to the Data Display, the configured alarm thresholds are applied with following result.
Note also that a MAC Address might not be set as a parameter on which an alarm template can be set into the driver.
