RMON Group 9–Events
528
CN4093 Application Guide for N/OS 8.2
The RMON Event Group allows you to define events that are triggered by alarms.
An event can be a log message, an SNMP trap message, or both.
When an alarm is generated, it triggers a corresponding event notification. Use the
following commands to correlate an Event index to an alarm:
CN4093(config)# rmon alarm <alarm number> risingcrossingindex <event number>
CN4093(config)# rmon alarm <alarm number> fallingcrossingindex <event number>
RMON events use SNMP and system logs to send notifications. Therefore, an
SNMP trap host must be configured for trap event notification to work properly.
RMON uses a syslog host to send syslog messages. Therefore, an existing syslog
host must be configured for event log notification to work properly. Each log event
generates a system log message of type RMON that corresponds to the event.
For example, to configure the RMON event parameters.
CN4093(config)# rmon event 110 type log
CN4093(config)# rmon event 110 description "SYSLOG_this_alarm"
CN4093(config)# rmon event 110 owner "log icmpInEchos alarm"
This configuration creates an RMON event that sends a syslog message each time it
is triggered by an alarm.
