While reviewing CleanAir data in Cisco Prime Infrastructure, an engineer notices that a wideband jammer is not sending its Interferer Security Trap correctly. The engineer determines that the…

Informational is a lower severity level than the factory default for interferer security traps, which might suppress necessary alerts.

Major is a higher severity level than the factory default for interferer security traps, which might cause the trap to be triggered only for extremely critical events, missing less severe but still important interference.

Minor is a lower severity level than the factory default for interferer security traps, which might suppress necessary alerts for significant interference sources.

In Cisco CleanAir, the default severity level for an Interferer Security Trap is 'warning'. Resetting the severity to this value ensures that the system will trigger traps for interferers at the intended default threshold, allowing the engineer to correctly receive alerts for wideband jammers.

Critical is the highest severity level and is not the factory default for general interferer security traps, which would severely limit the reporting of most interference events.
