Configuring Remote Monitoring (RMON)
RMON Configuration Considerations
OL-5647-02
Consider the following points before you implement RMON functionality on your
CSS:
You can configure an RMON event, alarm, and history. You cannot configure
•
CSS attributes for RMON statistics. Statistics for the ports are viewable only
by using the show rmon command.
You cannot change the configuration for an RMON history after you activate
•
it. If you need to change the RMON history configuration after activation,
you must delete it first and then recreate the RMON history with the
necessary changes. You can change your RMON history configuration at any
time before you activate it.
You must assign an RMON event to an RMON alarm before the alarm can be
•
activated. The event must exist and must be activated before it can be assigned
to an RMON alarm.
RMON histories are preconfigured for each Ethernet port. Though these
•
histories cannot be deleted or modified, you can add history entries for a port.
For more information on the preconfigured histories and adding more history
entries, see the
