Threshold and availability for child elements in Cisco ACI
Add a Cisco ACI monitor to continuously track and receive alerts on changes in health score, response time, packet loss, and overall or individual health scores of fabric and tenants.
Setting thresholds for child elements in Cisco ACI monitors helps the alarms engine decide if their status should be Critical, Trouble, or Down for specific conditions.
