NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual listed in the trap receiver table, or to both log and send a trap. The RMON traps are defined in RFC 1757 for rising and falling thresholds. The switch also supports the following parameters for configuring the RMON agent, as defined in RFC 2021: • probeCapabilities-If you configure the probeCapabilities object, you can view the RMON MIB groups supported on at least one interface by the probe. • probeSoftwareRev-If you configure the probeSoftwareRev object, you can view the current software version of the monitored device. • probeHardwareRev-If you configure the probeHardwareRev object, you can view the current hardware version of the monitored device. • probeDateTime-If you configure the probeDateTime object, you can view the current date and time of the probe. • probeResetControl-If you configure the probeResetControl object, you can restart a managed device that is not running normally. Depending on your configuration, you can do one of the following: • Warm boot-A warm boot restarts the device using the current configuration saved in non-volatile memory. • Cold boot-A cold boot causes the device to reset the configuration parameters stored in non-volatile memory to the factory defaults and then restarts the device using the restored factory default configuration. Note: You can only use the RMON features of the system if you have an RMON management application and have enabled RMON on the switch. RMON requires one probe per LAN segment, and stand-alone RMON probes have traditionally been expensive. Therefore, the approach taken by NETGEAR has been to build an inexpensive RMON probe into the agent of each system. This allows RMON to be widely deployed around the network without costing more than traditional network management. The switch accurately maintains RMON statistics at the maximum line rate of all of its ports. For example, statistics can be related to individual ports. Also, because a probe must be able to see all traffic, a stand-alone probe must be attached to a nonsecure port. Implementing RMON in the switch means that all ports can have security features enabled. To view the status of RMON polling on the switch, use the show management command. The show management command displays information about the switch including the enable/disable state for RMON polling. To view the RMON memory usage statistics for a specific memory type (for example, statistics, events, logs, history, or alarms) or for all memory types, use the following command: show rmon memory {detail | } 382 | Chapter 8.
