Port Utilization Thresholds

Use CLI commands to set the thresholds for high and low utilization alarms on a port. When a threshold is exceeded, the GigaVUE H Series node will write a utilization alarm to syslog and forward it to all configured SNMP notification destinations.

Argument

Description

port <port list>

Specifies the ports to which the percentage utilization threshold will be applied. Specify one of the following:

port-id <bid/sid/pid>port-alias     <port-alias>port-list  <bid/sid/pid_x..pid_y> (range)                    or                    <bid/sid/pid_x,bid/sid/pid_y,bid/sid/pid_z> (list)

alarm high-utilization-threshold <0~100> alarm low-utilization-threshold <0~100>

Specifies the high and low utilization thresholds on a port, as a percentage. The thresholds specify the value at which the GigaVUE H Series node will log an alarm for the specified ports.

By default, the thresholds are 0, which means disabled.

Note:  Network ports always use an Rx threshold; tool ports always use Tx. Stack ports and hybrid ports use both Rx and Tx; the same threshold is used for each.
