Configuring RMON with the Java Device Manager 103
Field Description
BucketsGranted The number of discrete sampling inter vals over which data is
saved in the part of the media-specific table associated with this
entry. There are instances when the actual number of buckets
associated with this entry is less than the value of this object. In
this case, at the end of each sampling interval, a new bucket is
added to the media-specific table.
Interval The interval in seconds over which the data is sampled for each
bucket in the part of the media-specific table associated with
this entry. You can set this interval to any number of seconds
between 1 and 3600 (1 hour). Because the counters in a bucket
may overflow at their maximum value with no indication, note
the possibility of overflow in any of the associated counters.
It is important to consider the minimum time in which any
counter could overflow on a particular media type and set the
historyControlInterval object to a value less than this interval.
This is typically most important for the octets counter in any
media-specific table. For example, on an Ethernet network, the
etherHistoryOctets counter could overflow in about one hour at
the Ethernet’s maximum utilization.
Owner The network management system that created this entr y.
