Description

Applicable on all Fiber channel devices that support the FIBER-CHANNEL-FE-MIB. Monitors the status of the fiber channel modules, port statistics like traffic rate on the port fiber elements, port status, etc.

Prerequisites

SNMP should be enabled in end device and device should support FIBRE-CHANNEL-FE-MIB OIDs and SNMP credentials should be attached against the device in portal.

How to Apply: This template is All instance selection based. It will not ask user to select any instance(s) while assigning it to a device.

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.
