Examples The following example shows how to configure Active Buffer Monitoring for unicast traffic with a
threshold value of 384 kilobytes and a sampling value of 5000 nanoseconds:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# hardware profile buffer monitor unicast
switch(config)# hardware profile buffer monitor threshold 384
switch(config)# hardware profile buffer monitor unicast sampling 5000
switch(config)# copy running-config startup-config
The following example shows how to configure Active Buffer Monitoring for multicast traffic with a
threshold value of 384 kilobytes and a sampling value of 5000 nanoseconds.
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# hardware profile buffer monitor multicast
switch(config)# hardware profile buffer monitor threshold 384
switch(config)# hardware profile buffer monitor multicast sampling 5000
OL-27851-02
hardware profile buffer monitor {unicast | multicast} [sampling interval | threshold value]
no hardware profile buffer monitor {unicast | multicast} [sampling interval | threshold value]
Specifies to enable unicast mode.
Specifies to enable multicast mode.
Specifies to monitor the hardware profile buffer by sampling data every
second. The default sampling interval is 4 milliseconds.
Speicifes to generate a syslog entry when the specified maximum buffer
threshold is exceeded. The range is from 384 to 6144 kilobytes with 384
kilobyte increments. The default threshold value is 90% of the total
available shared buffer.
Sampling interval for hardware. The range is from 10 to 2000000
nanoseconds. The default sampling interval is 4 milliseconds.
Histogram threshold value. The range is from ? to ? kilobytes.
