I'm looking for RMON guideline to configure alarm. I need to monitor interface errors.

Where can I find guideline to correctly set rising-threshold and falling-threshold ?

Thanks.

Here are two guides for configuring RMON alarms and events from either the CLI (IOS) or SNMP (IOS and CatOS):

Hi Joe and many many thanks for your help.

However, I'm looking for info about rising and falling threshold.

Example: how many interface errors for seconds?

Examples for rising and falling thresholds are mentioned in those documents. For example, to set a rising threshold of 3 input errors on an interface, and a falling threshold of 1, you could do:

rmon alarm 1 ifInErrors.1 60 delta rising-threshold 3 1 falling-threshold 1 2 owner config

rmon event 1 trap public

rmon event 2 trap public
