Configuring SNMP and RMON
8-25
Configuring Event Groups
The RMON Event group allows for the generation of an SNMP trap , the generation of a log entry , or
both, for any event you choose. An event can occur when the sample variable exceeds the alarm
threshold or a channel match event generated. Traps can be delivered by the RMON agent to
multiple management stations.
In order for RMON to generate trap events, you must set up the SNMP managers table based on
the SNMP community strings (for example, public) you are using with the network
management application and the hosts on which you are running applications. If you fail to
make these changes, the system will be unable to send trap events to the network management
station.
To set an RMON event, use the following commands in Privileged mode:
