Monitor Command

This Monitor command:
Allows you to monitor each network (individually) by specifying the
backplane or isolated segment to which the module is configured.
Supports repeater statistics at the module (group) and port levels.
You cannot enter DMM commands while in Monitor mode.
Use the following command to monitor repeater statistics:
MONITOR {mm:ss} {REPEATER} {fast_ethernet_1..._4, isolated}
The system-specified range of time for the polling interval is 00 to
30 minutes (mm) and 05 to 59 seconds (ss). Use these ranges when
specifying a length of time between monitor display updates.
You must set a polling interval for the Monitor command. The polling
interval defines the time between monitor display updates. The monitor
displays the statistics for the last polling interval and a cumulative count
(initialized to all zeros at the start of the monitor display). The Monitor
command normalizes the repeater statistics from the values when
invoked and when ever a counter rolls over or reaches maximum count.
The following output is an example of the MONITOR REPEATER
command for a 12-Port 100BASE-TX Workgroup FastModule assigned
to network Fast_Ethernet_1.
{module} { slot }
{ slot .port}
{port}
