You might then create a favorite called Server, containing both
user-defined protocols. You could display this favorite in the Map as a
single color, to show the overall use of both protocols on your network.
To set up a user-defined protocol, you need:
The name of the parent protocol over which it runs, for example
The protocol number. For example if the protocol runs on
678, the protocol number is 678.
The name for the protocol.
From the Configure Protocols dialog box with the Protocols tab selected
you can also:
Register a user-defined protocol with an agent so that the agent
collects data from the new protocol. If you have created a protocol
that is registered with one agent, you can use this option to register it
with another agent.
Deregister a user-defined protocol with an agent so that the agent no
longer collects data for the protocol.
Check whether a specific protocol is registered with an agent.
Notes on User-defined Protocols
There are some limitations on the user-defined protocols which 3Com
agents support. Refer to the firmware documentation for lists of the
3Com protocols and user-defined protocols that this firmware supports.
Data collected using newly defined protocols does not appear
immediately in the Map, but only after further data collections have taken
place. Data collection is described in
The protocol directory on an agent may be reset when the agent is reset,
in which case you must remember to set up user-defined protocols again.
The supported 3Com agents listed in the firmware documentation are
reset when new firmware is downloaded or the operational mode is
changed. See
Appendix
Agents"
for more information.
RMON-2 Limitations
You can only create protocols as the children of existing protocols
supported by the agent.
