In your scenario you would not receive an alarm b/c the interface did not stay 
in an alarm state for a continuous 5 minutes.

Hi,
 
If I set the age time say 5 minutes for a collection of interfaces in the SANM 
policy filter and if the link goes up say in 2 minutes what would happen to the 
link down alarm held by the filter?
 
=============================================
Age Time 
Indicates the time for which the filter holds the alarm. The alarm passes to 
the alarm processing application after the age time. 
===========================================
Regards,
 
Jack

If you have not applied a SANM policy you should receive the “Interface Down” 
alarm immediately. By default there is an attribute call “Alarm on Link Down 
Trap” where is check’s the interface admin status. 
 
You can apply a SANM policy to age out your interface down alarms, meaning the 
interface would have to be down for a period of time i.e. 3 minutes prior to 
raising an alarm.

Hi List ,
 
How long will spectrum  wait before it generates a link down alarm after 
receiving a link down trap from a interface? .
I believe it waits for some time to check for flapping interfaces and generates 
alarms for flapping interfaces, but in case the link is not flapping and its 
really down what period does it wait for and vice versa for clearing?
 
Regards,
 
Jack
