System Command Reference
372 Basic System Configuration Guide
Creating an event entry in the RMON-MIB log table does not create a corresponding entry in the
TiMOS event logs. However, when the event-type is set to trap, the generation of a Rising Alarm or
Falling Alarm notification creates an entry in the TiMOS event logs and that is distributed to whatever
TiMOS log destinations are configured: CONSOLE, session, memory, file, syslog, or SNMP trap
destination.
The TiMOS logger message includes a rising or falling threshold crossing event indicator, the sample
type (absolute or delta), the sampled value, the threshold value, the RMON-alarm-id, the associated
RMON-event-id and the sampled SNMP object identifier.
Use the no form of this command to remove an rmon-event-id from the configuration.
Parameters rmon-event-type — The 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
description — The description is a user configurable string that can be used to identify the
purpose of this event. This is an optional parameter and can be 80 characters long. If the string
contains special characters (#, $, spaces, etc.), the entire string must be enclosed within
double quotes.
Default An empty string.
owner owner — The owner identifies the creator of this alarm. It defaults to "TiMOS CLI". This
parameter is defined primarily to allow entries that have been created in the RMON-MIB
alarmTable by remote SNMP managers to be saved and reloaded in a CLI configuration file.
The owner will not normally be configured by CLI users and can be a maximum of 80
characters long.
Default TiMOS CLI
Configuration example:
event 5 rmon-event-type both description "alarm testing" owner "TiMOS CLI"
