Chapter 21 Configuring RMON
Configuring an SNMP Trap for the CRC Error Threshold Using Cisco IOS
Configuring an SNMP Trap for the CRC Error Threshold Using Cisco IOS
The ML-Series card supports RMON trap functionality in Cisco IOS. You must use the Cisco IOS CLI
to configure RMON to monitor ifInErrors and generate a trap to an NMS when a threshold is crossed.
The ML-Series card on the ONS 15454 SONET/SDH does not support the configuration of RMON traps
through an SNMP set request, which typically initiates an action on a network device.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure RMON to monitor ifInE rrors and
generate a trap for an NMS when a threshold is crossed:
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 rmon event number [log] [trap community] [description
string] [owner string]
Add an event in the RMON event table that is
associated with an RMON event number.
For number, assign an event number. The range
is 1 to 65535.
(Optional) Use the log keyword to generate an
RMON log entry when the event is triggered.
(Optional) For trap community, enter the
SNMP community string used for this trap.
(Optional) For description string, specify a
description of the event.
(Optional) For owner string, specify the owner
of this event.
