Setting the RMON Event Attributes

Defining an Event Community

OL-5647-02
After you create an RMON event index, access RMON event configuration mode
for the event identifier and set its attributes. This section includes the following
topics:
Defining an Event Community
•

Describing an Event

•
•

Assigning an Owner

Defining the Notification of an Event

•
After you set the attributes, activate the event as described in the
RMON Event" section.
If an RMON event is activated and you want to make modifications to certain
event attributes, you must first suspend the RMON event (as described in the
"Suspending an RMON Event"
to an RMON alarm.
When an alarm event occurs and the event is configured to send an SNMP trap,
the CSS sends the trap to the trap host with the specified community. If no
community is specified the CSS automatically uses the default event community
of "public".
Use the community community_name command to define a community for an
unactivated event. The community_name variable is the name of the SNMP
community you configured using the snmp trap-host command (refer to
Chapter 5, Configuring Simple Network Management Protocol
To view a list of currently configured community strings (configured using the
snmp trap-host command), enter rmon-event community ?
For example, to define the SNMP moonbase_alpha community for this event,
enter:
(config-rmonevent[1])# community moonbase_alpha
To reset the community back to public, enter:
(config-rmonevent[1])# no community
section). Ensure the RMON event is not assigned
