Configuring the Alarm Entry

An alarm entry monitors the value of a MIB variable. The rising-event-index, rising-threshold, sample-type, and variable statements are mandatory. All other statements are optional.

To configure the alarm entry, include the alarm statement and specify an index at the [edit snmp rmon] hierarchy level:

[edit snmp rmon]

alarm index {

    description description;

    falling-event-index index;

    falling-threshold integer;

    interval seconds;

    rising-event-index index;

    rising-threshold integer;

    sample-type (absolute-value | delta-value);

    startup-alarm (falling-alarm | rising alarm | rising-or-falling-alarm);

    variable oid-variable;

}

index is an integer that identifies an alarm or event entry.
