Quick Steps for Enabling/Disabling RMON Probes
1Enable an inactive (or disable an active) RMON probe, where necessary. You can also enable or
disable all probes of a particular flavor, if desired. For example:
-> rmon probes stats 4005 enable
-> rmon probes history disable
2To verify the RMON probe configuration, enter the show rmon probes command with the keyword
for the type of probe. For example, to display the statistics probes, enter the following:
-> show rmon probes stats
The display is similar to the one shown below:
Entry Slot/Port Flavor Status Duration System Resources
-----+-----------+-----------+----------+---------------+---------------------
4001 4/1 Ethernet Active 00:25:00 275 bytes
4008 4/8 Ethernet Active 00:25:00 275 bytes
4005 4/5 Ethernet Active 00:03:03 275 bytes
3To view statistics for a particular RMON probe, enter the show rmon probes command, with the
keyword for the type of probe, followed by the entry number for the desired RMON probe. For example:
-> show rmon probes 4005
The display will appear similar to the one shown below:
Probe’s Owner: Hawk Switch Auto Probe on Slot 4, Port 5
Entry 4005
Flavor = Ethernet, Status = Active
Time = 0 hrs 03 mins,
System Resources (bytes) = 275
For more information about these commands, see “Displaying a List of RMON Probes” on page27-28,

in the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.
