portThConfig command procedures
The following sections provides specific examples for the Port class. See
“Port class guidelines and
default settings”
on page 59 for recommendations on how to set areas for the physical port, the
E_Port, the FOP_Port, and the FCU_Port .
Port type: physical port
In general, use the generic Port class to provide supplemental data for the specific E_Port,
FOP_Port, or FCU_Port classes.
See
“Physical port setting guidelines”
on page 59 for more information.
Configuring a port with an Invalid CRC Count area
Invalid Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) count errors can represent noise on the network or a
potential hardware problem.
1.
Enter the
portThConfig
command using the following parameters:
portthconfig
--
set port -area crc -highth -value 25 -trigger above -action
raslog
•
The alarms should be set at two points: a low threshold of 0 (the default) and a high
threshold of 25 (the default is 1000). The goal to be notified as the number of invalid CRCs
per minute rises above the low boundary and again when it rises above the high boundary.
•
Triggers specify actions for in-range port behavior. Set the trigger to
above
.
•
Set the action to collect all notifications (raslog, snmp, email, and portlog).
2.
Apply the changes.
portthconfig
--
apply port -area crc -action_level cust -thresh_level cust
Configuring a port with an Invalid Transmission Words area
Invalid Transmission Words occur when a word does not transmit successfully, resulting in
encoding errors. Invalid word messages usually indicate a hardware problem.
1.
Enter the
portThConfig
command using the following parameters:
portthconfig
--
set port -area itw -highth -value 25 -trigger above -action
raslog,snmp,email,portlog
•
The alarms should be set at two points: a low threshold of 0 (the default) and a high
threshold of 25 (the default is 1000). The goal to be notified as the number of invalid CRCs
per minute rises above the low boundary and again when it rises above the high boundary.
•
Triggers specify actions for in-range port behavior. Set the trigger to
above
.
•
Set the action to collect all notifications (raslog, snmp, email, and portlog).
