Set Alarm Buffer Thresholds

Use the card slot <slot id> alarm buffer-threshold command to set an alarm buffer threshold on the slots of a GigaVUE node.

The card level threshold indicates usage levels of the node.

The following table describes the arguments:

Argument

Description

card slot <slot ID>

Specifies the slot.

alarm buffer-threshold <0-100%>

Sets the alarm buffer threshold for a slot, as a percentage.

By default, the threshold is set to 0, which disables the threshold.

Note:  On the GigaVUE‑HC3, this command configures the same alarm buffer threshold on all the slots in the chassis.

The following are examples of configuring alarm buffer thresholds on slots:

Command

Comments

(config) # card slot 4/1 alarm buffer-threshold 30

Configures the alarm buffer threshold on box id 4 and slot 1.

(config) # no card slot 4/1 alarm buffer-threshold

Removes the alarm buffer threshold on box id 4 and slot 1.

Use the port <port list> alarm buffer-threshold command to set rx (ingress) and tx (egress) alarm buffer thresholds on a port.

The port level thresholds indicate usage levels of each port.

The following table describes the arguments:

Argument

Description

port <port list>

Specifies the ports to which the alarm buffer threshold is to be applied. Use one of the following formats for the port-list:

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 buffer-threshold <0-100%> | rx <0-100%> | tx <0-100%>

Specifies the alarm buffer threshold on a port. You can specify the alarm buffer threshold in the rx and tx directions on network and stack type ports and in the tx direction on tool type ports.

By default, the threshold is set to 0, which disables the threshold.
