IP Address Pool-Level Thresholds
This section provides instructions for configuring a single IP address pool utilization threshold for all pool groups within
the context.
Important: The IP pool-level threshold settings configured with the ip pool pool_name alert-threshold
command take precedence over the context level IP pool threshold configuration commands.
Important: These instructions also assume that IP address pools have been previously configured.
If the group-available threshold is set for individual IP pools that are a part of an IP pool group, the IP pool with the
threshold that is encountered first sets the threshold for the entire group.
For example; assume there is a group named IPGroup1, and there are three IP pools in that group; PoolA, PoolB, and
PoolC. Also assume that, at the IP address-pool level, the three pools have the group-available threshold set as follows:
PoolA:
Enter condition (low threshold) set to 40 percent
Clear condition (high threshold) set to 60 percent
PoolB:
Enter condition (low threshold) set to 30 percent
Clear condition (high threshold) set to 70 percent
PoolC:
Enter condition (low threshold) set to 20 percent
Clear condition (high threshold) set to 50 percent
In this case, the Enter condition for the percentage of IP pool addresses available from the group that is encountered first
is the low threshold setting for PoolA. So both the low and high threshold settings for PoolA are used for the whole
group.
