RMON Commands

type — Specifies the method used for sampling the selected variable and calculating the value to be compared against the thresholds. Possible values are absolute and delta.

If the method is absolute, the value of the selected variable is compared directly with the thresholds at the end of the sampling interval. If the method is delta, the selected variable value of the last sample is subtracted from the current value, and the difference is compared with the thresholds.

direction — Specifies the alarm that may be sent when this entry is first set to valid. Possible values are rising, rising-fallingand falling.

If the first sample (after this entry becomes valid) is greater than or equal to rthreshold and direction is equal to rising or rising-falling, a single rising alarm is generated. If the first sample (after this entry becomes valid) is less than or equal to fthreshold and direction is equal to falling or rising-falling, a single falling alarm is generated.

name — Specifies the name of the person who configured this alarm. If unspecified, the name is an empty string.

The startup direction is rising-falling.
