Creating an Index for an RMON Alarm
The RMON alarm index identifies the alarm to the CSS. This index allows you to
assign specific configuration attributes to the RMON alarm. When you create an
RMON alarm index, you access the configuration mode for that alarm
automatically.
Use the rmon-alarm index command to create an alarm index. You can access
this command from any configuration mode except the boot and RMON history
configuration modes. The index is an integer from 1 to 65534.
Note The RMON alarm index 65535 is administratively predefined and cannot be
modified. If you enter this index number, a message similar to the following
appears: %% Index internally used. Administrative control not allowed.
To create an RMON alarm with an identifier of 1, access global configuration
mode and enter:
(config)# rmon-alarm 1
To see a list of existing RMON alarm configuration identifiers, enter
rmon-alarm ?.
After you create the identifier for the alarm, the prompt changes to
(
config-rmonalarm[1]). Now you can define the alarm as described in the
“Setting the RMON Alarm Attributes” section.
Modifying the Attributes for an Existing RMON Alarm Index
Before you can modify attributes for an active RMON alarm, you must deactivate
the alarm. Use the suspend command to deactivate the RMON alarm and make
attribute changes.
For example:
(config-rmonalarm[1])# suspend
