Symptoms

The SNMP Counter Monitor generates a notification every time the threshold is exceeded. However, the actual behavior is against the documentation. It clearly says "the Counter Monitor does not generate an additional notification".

SNMP Counter Monitors: Configuration (Administration Console Online Help 12.2.1.2.0)

The monitor generates a notification the first time the observed value transitions from below the threshold to at or above the threshold. While the observed value remains at or above the threshold, the Counter Monitor does not generate additional notifications. If the observed value falls below the threshold and then later equals or exceeds the threshold, the Counter Monitor does not generate an additional notification.
