Hi,

If you want an alarm when error or discard packets exceed 1%, you have to
set 1000000 in attribute editor. Alternatively, you can set those thresholds
in the Detail Pannel -> Information tab -> Thresholds and Watches ->
Thresholds. In this case 1% is entered as "1,0".

Generally speaking, you only need to monitor "Total Errors". You don't need
to monitor In and Out because your device will never throw out a packet with
errors so all errors will be "In Errors".

But in case you still need to monitor in and out values, you need to create
a Watch. Again in Detail Pannel -> Information tab -> Thresholds and Watches
-> Watches. I recommend you to read Spectrum_Watches_User_ENU.pdf user
guide. In the watch you'll be able to use %Errors / %Discards or Total
Errors / Discards or  Increment (Delta) Errors / Discards either for In and
Out.

Delta_Errors_In (0x22009f), Delta_Errors_Out (0x2200a0), Percent_IN_Errors
(0x220025), Percent_OUT_Errors (0x220029), Sum_IN_Errors (0x220030),
Sum_OUT_Errors (0x220034)
(You can filter in the Attribute Tab for a port model type in order to
search all IDs).

I hope this can be helpful.
Regards.
James.
