Threshold configuration
6
TU - Trunk utilization
-timebase Configures the threshold value to be measured in one of the following time
increments: day, hour, minute, or second.
-highth Configures the high threshold on the specified port and area type. Refer to
Appendix B, “Default Settings” for the default settings for high and low
thresholds and buffers for each class and area. Refer to Appendix C,
“portThConfig examples” for port threshold configuration examples for each
class and area.
-lowth Configures the low threshold on the specified port and area type. Refer to
Appendix B, “Default Settings” for the default settings for high and low
thresholds and buffers for each class and area. Refer to Appendix C,
“portThConfig examples” for port threshold configuration examples for each
class and area.
-value Specifies the high or low threshold value.
-trigger Configures the trigger on the specified port and area type to be above or
below the specified threshold settings. Refer to Appendix C, “portThConfig
examples” for sample threshold combinations, including triggers.
-buffer Configures the buffer setting on the specified port and area type. Refer to
Appendix B, “Default Settings” for the default settings for high and low
thresholds and buffers for each class and area.
-action Specifies the method by which you are notified if the system detects an
exceeded threshold limit. Possible values include snmp, raslog, email, or
none.
--nosave Prevents the configuration changes from being saved persistently. This option
allows you to make and view changes without overwriting the saved
configuration. When you use --set with the --nosave option and the switch
reboots, your changes will be lost.
--show Displays the threshold configuration for all configured VE_Ports.
ve-port Displays the port type to be configured as a VE_Port. Only a subset of areas
can be configured for this port type.
-area Displays the area to be configured on a VE_Port. Configurable areas for ports
of VE_Port type include the following:
util - Port utilization
pktLoss - Packet loss
ST - State change
-current_status Displays the VE_Port’s current threshold status.
-thresh_level Specifies the threshold level (either default or custom).
-action_level Specifies the alarms level (either default or custom).
--set Configures the thresholds for monitoring a specified area for all ports of a
specified port type. When configuring a threshold, you must specify a port
type and an area.
port e_port - Configures thresholds for all E_Ports.
