944 CHAPTER 76: RMON CONFIGURATION
n
■ Two entries with the same configuration cannot be created. If the parameters 
of a newly created entry are identical to the corresponding parameters of an 
existing entry, the system considers their configurations the same and the 
creation fails. Refer to Table 75 for the parameters to be compared for different 
entries.
■ The system limits the total number of all types of entries. When the total 
number of an entry reaches the maximum number of entries that can be 
created, the creation fails.
■ When you create an entry in the history table, if the specified buckets number 
argument exceeds the history table size supported by the device, the entry will 
be created. However, the validated value of the buckets number argument 
corresponding with the entry is the history table size supported by the device.
