Usage Guidelines
You can trigger the events created by this command with alarms configured using the rmon alarm or
rmon hcalarm commands
The log option logs the event to a local log file on the MDS switch. The trap option uses the onboard
SNMP agent to send an SNMP trap to a remote NMS.
Events can be used by both rmon alarm (32-bit) and hcalarm (64-bit) commands.
Note
Examples The following example configures RMON event 2 to log the onboard RMON log and send an SNMP trap
to public community trap destinations. The description is CriticalErrors and is owned by test.
