Commands for Status Monitoring and Statistics

disable rmon

Disables the collection of RMON statistics on the switch.

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or variables.

By default, RMON is disabled. However, even when RMON is disabled, the switch responds to RMON

queries and sets for alarms and events.

Usage Guidelines

The switch supports four out of nine groups of Ethernet RMON statistics. With RMON disabled, the

switch continues to respond to the following two groups:

• Alarms—The Alarms group provides a versatile, general mechanism for setting threshold and

sampling intervals to generate events on any RMON variable. Both rising and falling thresholds are

supported, and thresholds can be on the absolute value of a variable or its delta value. In addition,

alarm thresholds may be auto calibrated or set manually.

• Events—The Events group creates entries in an event log and/or sends SNMP traps to the

management workstation. An event is triggered by an RMON alarm. The action taken can be

configured to ignore it, to log the event, to send an SNMP trap to the receivers listed in the trap

receiver table, or to both log and send a trap. The RMON traps are defined in RFC 1757 for rising

and falling thresholds.

To view the status of RMON polling on the switch, use the
