Data Source (Obj ID)

Enter the Object ID of the counter to be monitored.

Important:

The Object ID for a counter

is defined in the MIB with which it is asso-

Some counters require an interface num-
ber (the number of the port to be moni-
tored) at the end of the object ID. See
Figure 7-8.

For example, to monitor the RMON Ether-
net Statistics Octets counter (etherStatsOc-
tets), enter the following object ID
number, directly followed by the number
of the port to be monitored:

rent value, and the difference compared
with the thresholds.
