c. Click Global Index Settings under Performance Management from the navigation system on
the left.
The Global Index Settings page displays with monitors grouped by type.
To view the individual monitors, click the expand icon located to the left of the group name.
The page is updated to display an expanded list of monitors.
2. Click the Add Custom Index button located on the toolbar at the top of the Global Index
Settings list.
The Add Custom Index page appears.
3. Enter a name for the custom global monitor in the Name field.
4. To define the unit of measure, do one of the following:
{
To use a pre-defined unit of measure, select it from the Predefined list.
{
To define a custom unit of measure, click the radio button to the left of Custom and enter the
unit of measure in the field to the right of Custom.
The Type field defines the user-defined instance of the performance monitor as defined in the
MIB definition.
Multi-level MIB objects are supported.
5. Enter the monitor format in the Type field using the following format:
[index1[0|2]:NAME:TYPE:LENGTH].[index2[0|2]:NAME:TYPE:LENGTH]
• The parameter indexN defines the hierarchy level of a monitor instance. For example,
[index1[2]:Frame:1:0].[index2[2]:Slot:1:0].[index3[2]:Memory:1:0] indicates the memory on the
slot of the frame.
• 0 indicates a MIB leaf node and 2 indicates a non-leaf node.
• The value in the NAME field identifies the name of the instance for the performance monitor. This
name is used by IMC as the name of the instance for the performance monitor.
• 1 in the TYPE field indicates an integer and 2 indicates a string.
• The value in the LENGTH field indicates the index length, which is 0 for integer index and
non-hierarchical index.
• Use a colon ":" to separate each field in the definition.
• Use a dot "." to separate length values for hierarchical indexes.
For example, [index1[2]:Interface:1:0] and
[index1[2]:Frame:1:0].[index2[2]:Slot:1:0].[index3[2]: Memory:1:0]are both valid entries for
the Type field.
6. Enter the object identifier (OID) of the MIB object you want to use to translate numeric values into
user friendly values in the Instance Label (Definition OID) field.
7. Use a colon ":" to separate the OIDs for hierarchical indexes, and enter 0 if no OID is provided.
IMC displays user friendly values together with the instance names you defined in Step 5.
For example, the ifIndex object of the ifEntry table of the MIB2 ifTable contains numeric values for
every interface in the table. The ifDescr object of the ifEntry table contains a name or description
for every interface in the table and is more readable. The Instance Label (Definition OID) field
allows you to use the values contained in ifDescr to translate the ifIndex value into the more usable
descriptions for interfaces on the device being monitored.
8. Do one of the following:
To use IMC integrated MIB browser to select the object:
