H.323 Stack Monitoring
In releases prior to S-C6.2.0, the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller provides SNMP monitoring of H.323 session agents but not of the H.323 stacks themselves. The H.323 stack/interface configuration now provides a way for you to set alarm thresholds on a per-stack basis. When enabled, this alarm system ties into the max-calls value to send critical, major, or minor alarms when the number of calls approaches the threshold.
Each H.323 stack now has a threshold crossing alert (TCA) where you can set up three severity levels: critical, major, and minor. You can define one severity level or all three for each stack. To prevent the alarm from firing continuously as call volume through the stack varies, each severity level has an has a reset value below the TCA you set. In addition, each threshold value resets when:
- An alarm with a higher severity is triggered, or
- The built-in reset value for the threshold level is 1% less than the parameter value

H.323 Stack Monitoring Configuration
This section shows you how to configure H.323 stack monitoring for one H.323 stack configuration. This example shows one instance of the alarm-threshold sub-configuration being established; remember that you can set three—critical, major, and minor. Simply repeat the configuration steps to add more severity levels.
