False Alerting Reporting

False Alerting Reporting

I am having an issue with the Alert Profiles. I have configured Inbound traffic with no criteria to email me when traffic utilization exceeds 70%, 80%, and 90% on a DS3. I have yet to see my traffic get over 50% yet I am getting pages stating that my traffic has exceeded.

Could this be broke and its looking at an application instead of the whole group? I run one application which is 80% of my traffic. Could this be triggering my alarms?

I attached my pdf file showing that I received a Warning alert. And here is my alert profile. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.
