126Chapter 8 RMON

Creating a history

You can use RMON to collect statistics at intervals. For example, if you want RMON statistics to be gathered over the weekend, you will want enough buckets to cover two days. To do this, set the history to gather one bucket each hour, thus covering a 48-hour period. After you set history characteristics, you cannot modify them; you must delete the history and create another one.

To establish a history for a port and set the bucket interval:

1From the Device Manager main menu, choose RMON > Control.

The RMONControl dialog box opens with the History tab displayed (Figure 60).
