Viewing the RMON fault event log
RMON events and alarms work together to produce notification when
values in the network go out of a specified range. When values pass the
specified ranges, the alarm is triggered. The event specifies how the activity
is recorded.
An event specifies whether a trap, a log, or a trap and a log are generated
to view alarm activity. When RMON is globally enabled, two default events
are generated:
•
Rising Event
•
Falling Event
Default events specify that when an alarm goes out of range, the firing of
the alarm is tracked in both a trap and a log. For example, when an alarm
fires at the rising threshold, the rising event specifies that this information
be sent to both a trap and a log. The RMON Event Log screen works in
conjunction with the RMON Threshold screen to enable viewing the history
of RMON fault events.
To view a history of RMON fault events, follow this procedure:
Step Action
1
Open the RMON Event Log screen by selecting Fault > RMON
Event Log from the menu. This screen is illustrated below.
