Thresholds tab for IP Availability Manager shows the Thresholds tab in the Polling and Thresholds Console connected to an IP Availability Manager instance named INCHARGE-AM. The right panel of the console identifies "Connectivity" as the default setting for the default "System Resource Group" named "Switches."

Thresholds tab for IP Performance Manager shows the Thresholds tab of a Polling and Thresholds Console connected to an IP Performance Manager instance named INCHARGE-PM. The right panel of the console Identifies "Ethernet Interface/Port Performance" as the default setting for the default "Port Groups - Trunk Ports" group named "1 Gb Ethernet."
