RMON group 3—Alarms
The RMON Alarm group allows you to define a set of thresholds used to determine network performance. When a configured threshold is crossed, an alarm is generated. For example, you can configure the switch to issue an alarm if more than 1,000 CRC errors occur during a 10- minute time interval.
Each Alarm index consists of a variable to monitor, a sampling time interval, and parameters for rising and falling thresholds. The Alarm Group can be used to track rising or falling values for a MIB object. The object must be a counter, gauge, integer, or time interval.
