CISCO-NOTIFICATION-CONTROL-MIB Table View

This table represents the notifications to be controlled.
To control a particular notification, user creates a row
uniquely indexed by cNotifCtrlIndex using the
cNotifCtrlRowStatus object.  The storage type of each row
is indicated by  cNotifCtrlStorageType.
          
The agent filters out the notification depending on the 
current value of cNotifCtrlMode.  The agent also indicates 
the current state of notification control through 
cNotifCtrlCurrentState.
          
This notification control mechanism is illustrated as follows.
          
cNotifCtrlTable contains the list of notifications, that
need to be controlled from the agent when 
cNotifCtrlCurrentState is 'controlOn'.
          
When cNotifCtrlMode is set to 'automaticControl', a timer is 
started for the time interval represented by 
cNotifCtrlSamplingInterval(eg: 10 mins) to monitor the number 
of notifications being generated by the agent.  If the number
of notifications generated exceeds the value represented by
cNotifCtrlThreshold (eg: 100) before the timer expires, all
notifications mentioned in cNotifCtrlTable are throttled.
          
When the timer expires, it is restarted and the counter used
to track the number of notifications generated is initialized to
zero.  This controlling of notifications will continue until
the number of notifications generated falls below the threshold
in the given interval.
          
When cNotifCtrlMode is set to 'forcedControl', all the
notifications mentioned in cNotifCtrlTable are always
throttled, irrespective of the values of
threshold and sampling interval.
