Configuring Rmon - 3Com Switch 4800G 24-Port Configuration Manual

Configuring RMON

Configuration
Prerequisites
Configuration Procedure
Compares the result with the defined threshold and generates an appropriate
■
event.
n
If the count result overpasses the same threshold multiple times, only the first one
can cause an alarm event. That is, the rising alarm and falling alarm are alternate.
History group
The history group controls the periodic statistical sampling of data, such as
bandwidth utilization, number of errors, and total number of packets.
Note that each value provided by the group is a cumulative sum during a sampling
period.
Ethernet statistics group
The statistics group monitors port utilization. It provides statistics about network
collisions, CRC alignment errors, undersize/oversize packets, broadcasts,
multicasts, bytes received, packets received, and so on.
After the creation of a valid event entry on a specified interface, the Ethernet
statistics group counts the number of packets received on the current interface.
The result of the statistics is a cumulative sum.
Before configuring RMON, configure the SNMP agent as described in "SNMP
Configuration" on page 931.
Follow these steps to configure RMON:
To do...
Enter system view
Create an event entry in the
event table
Enter Ethernet interface view
Create an entry in the history
table
Create an entry in the
statistics table
Exit Ethernet interface view
Create an entry in the alarm
table
Use the command...
