Viewing history
Ethernet history records periodic statistical samples from a network. A
sample is called a history and is gathered in time intervals referred to as
"buckets."
Histories establish a time-dependent method for gathering RMON statistics
on a port. The default values for history are:
•
Buckets are gathered at 30-minute intervals.
•
Number of buckets gathered is 50.
Both the time interval and the number of buckets is configurable. However,
when the last bucket is reached, bucket 1 is dumped and "recycled" to hold
a new bucket of statistics. Then bucket 2 is dumped, and so forth.
To view RMON history:
