Configuring Utilization Thresholds for Media Interfaces

To configure utilization thresholds for media interfaces:

  1. In Superuser mode, type configure terminal and press Enter.
    ORACLE# configure terminal
    ORACLE(configure)#
  2. Type system and press Enter.
    ORACLE(configure)# system
    ORACLE(system)#
  3. Type phy-interface and press Enter. If you are adding this feature to an existing configuration, then remember you must select the configuration you want to edit.
    ORACLE(system)# phy-interface
    ORACLE(phy-interface)#
  4. Type network-alarm-threshold and press Enter.
    ORACLE(phy-interface)# network-alarm-threshold
    ORACLE(network-alarm-threshold)#
  5. severity—Enter the severity for the alarm you want to fine for this interface: minor (default), major, or critical. Since the parameter defaults to minor, you must change the value if you want to define a major or critical alarm.
  6. value—Enter the percentage of utilization (transmitting and receiving) for this interface that you want to trigger the alarm. For example, you might define a minor alarm with a utilization percentage of 50. Valid values are between 0 and 100, where 0 is the default.
  7. Save your work.
