Parameters rising-threshold threshold  — Specifies a threshold for the sampled statistic. When the current 
sampled value is greater than or equal to this threshold, and the value at the last sampling 
interval was less than this threshold, a single threshold crossing event will be generated. A 
single threshold crossing event will also be generated if the first sample taken is greater than 
or equal to this threshold and the associated startup-alarm is equal to rising or either.
After a rising threshold crossing event is generated, another such event will not be generated 
until the sampled value falls below this threshold and reaches less than or equal the falling-
threshold value.
The threshold value represents units of kilobytes.
Default 0
Values -2147483648 to 2147483647
falling-threshold threshold — Specifies a threshold for the sampled statistic. When the current 
sampled value is less than or equal to this threshold, and the value at the last sampling interval 
was greater than this threshold, a single threshold crossing event will be generated. A single 
threshold crossing event will also be generated if the first sample taken is less than or equal 
to this threshold and the associated startup-alarm is equal to falling or either.
After a falling threshold crossing event is generated, another such event will not be generated 
until the sampled value rises above this threshold and reaches greater than or equal the rising-
threshold value.
The threshold value represents units of kilobytes.
Default 0
Values -2147483648 to 2147483647
interval seconds — Specifies the polling period over which the data is sampled and compared 
with the rising and falling thresholds. 
Values 1 to 2147483647
rmon-event-type  — Specifies the type of notification action to be taken when this event occurs. 
Values log — In the case of log, an entry is made in the RMON-MIB log 
table for each event occurrence. This does not create a TiMOS 
logger entry. The RMON-MIB log table entries can be viewed 
using the show>system>thresholds CLI command. 
Values trap — In the case of trap, a TiMOS logger event is generated. 
The TiMOS logger utility then distributes the notification of this 
event to its configured log destinations which may be CONSOLE, 
telnet session, memory log, cflash file, syslog, or SNMP trap 
destinations logs. 
Values both — In the case of both, both a entry in the RMON-MIB 
logTable and a TiMOS logger event are generated.
Values none — In the case of none, no action is taken.
Default both
