Configure parameters for RMON events

RMON > Event
An event specifies the action of the switch when the ingress packet activity on a port
crosses a statistical threshold defined in an alarm. The choices are to log a message in
the event log of the switch, send an SNMP trap to an SNMP workstation, or both. Since
there are only three possible actions and since events can be used with more than one
alarm, you probably will not create more than three events - one for each of the three
actions.
1. Log into your switch management page (see
on page 7).
2. Click on RMON and click on Event.
3. Review the settings.
• Index: This parameter specifies the ID number of the new group. The range is 1
to 65535.
• Description: This parameter specifies a text description of the event that you
are configuring.
•
Type: This parameter specifies where to log the event when it occurs. The
choices are to log a message in the event log of the Switch, send an SNMP trap
to the SNMP NMS software, or both.
•
Community: This parameter specifies the community where you want to send
the SNMP trap.
• Owner: This parameter is used to identify the person who created an entry. It is
primarily intended for switches that are managed by more than one person,
and is an optional field.
