Displaying interface monitoring default values
To display the default values of Interface threshold and alert options, issue the custom
action located in the node in the urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-threshold-monitor
namespace. The node is, in turn, located by augmentation under the
/ node hierarchy in the urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-common-def
namespace.

Configuring interface monitoring
Use the following procedures to configure interface monitoring on a standalone switch. For a Fabric
Cluster configuration, you must first identify the routing bridge with the RBridge ID.
1. Issue the RPC to configure the node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-threshold-monitor workspace.
2. Under the node, include the /
hierarchy of node elements.
3. Under the node, include the node element to specify that the system will
monitor the interface parameters using custom settings rather than the default settings.
4. Under the node, include the leaf element, and specify “custom.”
5. Under the node, specify the node element.
6. Under the node, specify the following elements.
a. In the leaf element, specify the type of interface as “Ethernet.”
b. In the leaf element, specify the interface error type to be monitored:
CRCAlignErrors—The total number of frames received with either a bad Frame Check
Sequence (FCS) or an alignment error.
SymbolErrors—The number of words received as an unknown (invalid) symbol. Large
symbol errors indicate a bad device, cable, or hardware.
IFG—The minimum-length interframe gap (IFG) between successive frames is violated. The
typical minimum IFG is 12 bytes.
MissingTerminationCharacter—The number of frames that terminated by anything other
than the Terminate character.
