falling_event_id

falling threshold is crossed. The event must be defined by the
RMON EVENT command.

Mode

Global Configuration mode

Description

Use this command to set RMON alarms by creating an entry in the SNMP
MIB alarm table. RMON is a standard monitoring specification, which is an
extension of the SNMP MIB. RMON alarms monitor the values of SNMP
objects and trigger events when the values of the monitored objects cross
specified thresholds.

Before setting an RMOM alarm, you must specify statistic entries and
RMON events. See “RMON COLLECTION STATS” on page 222 and
“RMON EVENT” on page 223.

Configuring RMON is more common and easier using an SNMP manager
than using the CLI commands on the switch.

Confirmation Command

“SHOW RMON EVENT” on page 225

Example

This example defines RMON events that send SNMP traps, creates an
statistic entry, and sets an RMON alarm that monitors the ingress packets
on port 1.0.2. The alarm sends SNMP traps if the number of packets
exceeds 3,000 packets per minute or falls below 2,000 packets:
