RMON Group 9—Events

The RMON Event Group allows you to define events that are triggered by alarms. An event can be a log message, an SNMP trap, or both.

When an alarm is generated, it triggers a corresponding event notification. Use the following commands to correlate an Event index to an alarm:

RS G8124(config)# rmon alarm <alarm number> rising-crossing-index<event number>

RS G8124(config)# rmon alarm <alarm number> falling-crossing-index<event number>

RMON events use SNMP and syslogs to send notifications. Therefore, an SNMP trap host must be configured for trap event notification to work properly.

RMON uses a syslog host to send syslog messages. Therefore, an existing syslog host must be configured for event log notification to work properly. Each log event generates a syslog of type RMON that corresponds to the event.

For example, to configure the RMON event parameters.

RS G8124(config)# rmon event 110 type log

RS G8124(config)# rmon event 110 description "SYSLOG_this_alarm"

RS G8124(config)# rmon event 110 owner "log icmpInEchos alarm"

This configuration creates an RMON event that sends a syslog message each time it is triggered by an alarm.
