These metrics may be used to assess the health of the nodes. If any of the performance indicators exceeds a preset threshold range, the node may be declared problematic.
Alarm rule setting: in order to respond to node problems in time, an administrator sets alarm rules on a node management platform. These rules define alarm conditions that should be triggered when the monitored target parameters of the VPN nodes do not meet preset threshold range requirements. When the alarm condition is met, the system automatically triggers an alarm.
Alarm notification: once the alarm condition is triggered, the node management platform will send fault alarm information to the maintenance personnel's terminal. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways, such as email, text messaging, instant messaging, or cell phone application notification, so that an administrator can take timely action to solve the problem.
