RMON configuration with NETCONF overview
This chapter provides procedures for configuring remote monitoring (RMON) events and alarms
using the NETCONF interface. Refer to the Network OS Administrator’s Guide for the following
related information:
• A conceptual overview of RMON
• Procedures for configuring RMON using the Network OS command line interface (CLI)
Using the NETCONF interface, you can perform the following RMON configuration operations:
• Use the remote procedure call (RPC) to configure RMON.
• Use the RPC to verify all or part of the RMON configuration.
RMON parameters are defined in the brocade-rmon YANG module. For a structural map of the
YANG module, refer to the Network OS YANG Reference Manual. For definitions and explanations of
all RMON parameters, refer to the brocade-rmon.yang file.
RMON configuration and management
Alarms and events are configurable RMON parameters:
• Events—Determines the action to take when an event is triggered by an alarm. The action can
be to generate a log entry, an SNMP trap, or both. You must define the events before an alarm
can be configured. If you do not configure the RMON event first, you will receive an error when
you configure the alarm settings.
• Alarms—Monitors a specific management information base (MIB) object for a specified
interval, triggers an alarm at a specified value (rising threshold), and resets the alarm at
another value (falling threshold). Alarms are paired with events; the alarm triggers an event,
which can generate a log entry or an SNMP trap.
Default RMON configuration
By default, no RMON alarms and events are configured and RMON collection statistics are not
enabled.
