Creating Events

To create a default rising and falling event:

1. From the Device Manager menu bar, choose RMON > Alarms > Event > Insert.

If RMON is not globally enabled, a dialog box displays the following message:

RMON is currently disabled. Do you want to enable it now?

2. Click Yes.

When you create events in this manner, two default events (a rising event and a falling event) are created.

To create events with nondefault parameter values:

1. From the Device Manager menu bar, choose RMON > Alarms > Event.
2. Click Insert at the bottom of the Event window to display the Insert Event window.
3. Type a name for the event in the Description field.
4. Select the type of event you want.

The default setting is log-and-trap. You may opt to set the event type to log to save memory or to snmp-log to reduce traffic from the switch.

If you select snmp-trap or log, trap receivers must be set.

5. Click Insert.
