Use the following CLI syntax to configure the external alarm parameters for the Auxiliary Alarm card, 7705 SAR Ethernet ports (supported on all platforms with Ethernet ports), and for the four alarm inputs on the fan module (for the 7705 SAR-8 Shelf V2), alarm connector (for the 7705 SAR-M, 7705 SAR-Wx, 7705 SAR-H, 7705 SAR-Hc, and 7705 SAR-X), and alarm module (for the 7705 SAR-18).
The output commands apply to the Auxiliary Alarm card only. The debounce and normally commands do not apply to external alarm parameters configured on an Ethernet port.

The following CLI syntax shows an example of configuring custom alarms on Ethernet ports.
config# external-alarms input port-1/1/5
config>ext-alarms>in# name ‟CABINET-DOOR”
config>ext-alarms>in# description ‟Front Panel Access Door Sensor”
config>ext-alarms>in# exit
