Configuring Thresholds

You can optionally specify threshold values for the following situations in which warning messages will be recorded in the system log:

Input packet rate to the DFC PIC interfaces
Memory usage on the DFC PIC interfaces

To configure threshold values, include the input-packet-rate-threshold or pic-memory-threshold statements at the [edit services dynamic-flow-capture capture-group client-name] hierarchy level:




input-packet-rate-threshold rate;

pic-memory-threshold percentage percentage;

If these statements are not configured, no threshold messages are logged. The threshold settings are configured for the capture group as a whole.

The range of configurable values for the input-packet-rate-threshold statement is 0 through 1 Mpps. The PIC calibrates the value accordingly; the Monitoring Services III PIC caps the threshold value at 300 Kpps and the MultiServices 400 PIC uses the full configured value. The range of values for the pic-memory-threshold statement is 0 to 100 percent.
