Feature Interactions; Configuring Rmon Ethernet Statistics; Performance Management Configuration Procedure - Allied Telesis SwitchBlade x3100 Series Manual

Introduction
Monitored interfaces must be enabled in order for counts to increment.
•
Monitored interfaces must be configured with the number of buckets and intervals in which each bucket
•
collects data.
When performance measurements are enabled, they cannot generate traps or logs unless a threshold is set.
•

7.5.5.4 Feature Interactions

Enabled ports for statistics are persistent over reboots and restarts.
After a CFC swap of activity on a duplex system or a SM Restart on a simplex or duplex system, disregard the
first interval of RMON statistics.

7.5.6 Configuring RMON Ethernet Statistics

To enable Ethernet statistics on an interface, follow these steps:
Select an Ethernet interface.
•
Turn the counter option ON.
•
Set the rising and falling threshold values for the interface with the PACKETS parameter.
•
Query the current counters.
•

7.5.6.1 Performance Management Configuration Procedure

TABLE 7-14
Step Command
List the cards for the device to show which interfaces (eth) can be configured.
SHOW CARD=ALL
1
Enable the 10.0 interface for performance management for the Ethernet statistics.
SET INTERFACE=10.0 COUNTER=ON
2
SHOW INTERFACE=10.0 COUNTER=STATUS
3
Set the rising and falling threshold values for the interface.
ADD INTERFACE=ETH:11.0 RMONALERT PACK-
