Danish term or phrase: grænseværdier
I have been using "parameters" in the text, but I don't think that is right. Here are some examples from the text itself:

"Disse Management Packs indeholder også grænseværdier for hvordan Microsoft mener systemer generelt skal overvåges."

"Disse grænseværdier benytter vi også som udgangspunkt, men vi tilretter dem konstant så de passer til vores løsninger og kundernes behov."

"Som nævnt tidligere tager vi udgangspunkt i Microsofts grænseværdier."

L&H IT ordbog: limit, marginal value

'Threshold value' is also used, especially by Microsft. It depends on the product.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Oh, good one! Indeed, using the Microsoft-based term would be most appropriate in this context. I will wait for a few more answers or agreements/disagreements but for now I am very much leaning toward your answer.

agree  Christine Andersen: The first thing I thought of - or threshold values where appropriate

agree  Brian Young: threshold values. It seems, from the limited context, that it is not a purely mathematical concept, like "limit value" might apply to.
