Description

It monitors the ExtemeXOS switch’s port statistics like average bandwidth utilization in the transmit(Tx) and receive(Rx) direction and monitors the number of packets dropped due to congestion on this port. Validated on ExtremeXOS X440 switch (SysObjID: enterprises.1916.2.175, enterprises.1916.2.177).

Note: While assigning this template user should select ports manually which need to be monitored.

Prerequisites

SNMP should be enabled in end device and device should support EXTREME-PORT-MIB OIDs and SNMP credentials should be attached against the device in portal.

How to Apply: While assigning the template, it will show get components discovery button. Once we click on it, it will show values for the following properties: Name

Metric Parameters

Metric Parameters
ParameterDescription
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 ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Warning Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    Critical ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Critical Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    AlertThe alert value can be set to either Yes or No. If it is Yes, then an alert message is sent to the user.
