This front-page module is legacy stuff from before we had alerting.
We don't remove it because people like using it when they don't want to set up alerting. It doesn't have any of the features of an alerting system though, like actually alerting or acknowledgement and the like.

Thanks Michael,
Explanation helped a lot, meanwhile is there a way to ACK these alarms?

Hi,
The difference between the front page value and the graph value is
due to
the graphs averaging the number over the polling interval and
dissipating
it as a rate per second. The front page is showing the absolute delta
value.
For instance, 25 errors in 5min = 83m/sec
Different devices report slightly different things as interface
errors.
Some could simply be drops as a result of traffic shaping and not
actually
an "error" at all.
Hope this helps,
Michael

Hello,
I see several Rx/Tx port errors on my Observium. For example it says Tx: 25 on the home page, but when I click on the interface, the "Errors"
graph
shows me that Tx 118.69m, and I can not see anything wrong with the
Tx
when I check the interface errors from the router CLI. How can I verify these alarms are false positive or not?
Alarms are not router specific, I got alarms from both Nokia and Juniper boxes.
