Chapter 3: Configuring SNMP for Network Management

Table 30: SNMP Quick Configuration Summary (continued)

Field

Function

Enable Health Monitoring

Enables the SNMP health monitor on the

 

router. The health monitor periodically

 

(the time you specify in the interval field)

 

checks the following key indicators of

 

router health:

 

Percentage of file storage used

 

Percentage of Routing Engine CPU

 

 

used

 

Percentage of Routing Engine

 

 

memory used

 

Percentage of memory used for

 

 

each system process

 

Percentage of CPU used by the

 

 

forwarding process

 

Percentage of memory used for

 

 

temporary storage by the

 

 

forwarding process

Your Action

Select the check box to enable the health monitor and configure options. If you do not select the check box, the health monitor is disabled.

NOTE: If you select only the Enable Health Monitoring check box and do not specify the options, then SNMP health monitoring is enabled with the default values for the options.

Interval

Determines the sampling frequency, in

 

seconds, over which the key health

 

indicators are sampled and compared

 

with the rising and falling thresholds.

 

For example, if you configure the

 

interval as 100 seconds, the values are

 

checked every 100 seconds.

Enter an interval time, in seconds, between 1 and 2147483647.

The default value is 300 seconds (5 minutes).

Rising Threshold

Value at which you want SNMP to

 

generate an event (trap and system log

 

message) when the value of a sampled

 

indicator is increasing.

 

For example, if the rising threshold is 90

 

(the default), SNMP generates an event

 

when the value of any key indicator

 

reaches or exceeds 90 percent.

Falling Threshold

Value at which you want SNMP to

 

generate an event (trap and system log

 

message) when the value of a sampled

 

indicator is decreasing.

 

For example, if the falling threshold is

 

80 (the default), SNMP generates an

 

event when the value of any key

 

indicator falls back to 80 percent or less.

Enter a value between 0 and 100.

The default value is 90.

Enter a value between 0 and 100.

The default value is 80.

NOTE: The falling threshold value must be less than the rising threshold value.
