All historical alarms and events are displayed in a scrollable, optionally filterable table. The historical alarms and events are sorted, by default, by time stamp with the most recent one at the top. Use this procedure to view alarm and event history.
Note: The alarms and events that appear in View History vary depending on whether you are logged in to an NOAMP or SOAM. Alarm collection is handled solely by NOAMP servers in systems that do not support SOAMs.

Historical alarms and events are displayed according to the specified criteria.
The historical alarms table updates automatically. When new historial data is available, the table is automatically updated, and the view returns to the top row of the table.
