Brocade ZXTM (Virtual Traffic Manager) - System Performance

Description

Template to monitor Brocade ZXTM (Virtual Traffic Manager) system performance parameters like CPU, Memory, Swap Memory, Traffic, TCP Connections and Uptime. Validated on Brocade Virtual Traffic Manager v10.1.

Prerequisites

Device should support ZXTM-MIB-SMIv2.mib OIDs and it should have SNMP credentials attached.

Metric Parameters

Metric Parameters
Parameter	Description
Frequency	Frequency is the interval in which you want to probe and collect metric data from the target device/resource Frequency is defined in minutes (min).
Warning Threshold	If the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Warning Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
Critical Threshold	If the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Critical Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
Alert	The alert value can be set to either Yes or No. If it is Yes, then an alert message is sent to the user.
