Example of the rmon event Command
To disable RMON on the interface, use the no form of this command.
In the following example, the conguration creates RMON event number 1, with the description “High ifOutErrors”, and generates a
log entry when an alarm triggers the event. The user nms1 owns the row that is created in the event table by this command. This
conguration also generates an SNMP trap when the event is triggered using the SNMP community string “eventtrap”.
Dell(conf)#rmon event 1 log trap eventtrap description “High ifOutErrors” owner nms1
