Configuring the resource usage counter for multicast streams

The Passport 8600 enables you to query the number of ingress and egress IP multicast streams traversing your switch. Once you have set the thresholds for ingress and egress records, if the record-usage goes beyond the threshold, you will be notified by way of a trap on the console, logged message, or both.


Note Note: If you do not set the thresholds, Device Manager displays only the ingress and egress records that are currently in use.

To configure or query the number of ingress and egress IP multicast streams traversing your switch:

  1. From the Device Manager menu bar select IP Routing > Multicast.
    2. The Multicast dialog box opens with the Routes tab displayed.
  2. Select the Resource Usage tab.
    3. The Resource Usage tab opens.

To continue, go to

Hardware Records Usage tab fields
