Configuring an RMON Event
An RMON event is the action that occurs when an associated RMON alarm is
triggered. When an alarm event occurs, it can be configured to generate a log
event, a trap to an SNMP network management station, or both. For information
on viewing alarm events in log files, see the “Viewing Events in a Log File”
section. Refer to Chapter 5, Configuring Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP), for information on configuring SNMP on your CSS.
