Cisco Works and CRC errors on Switch interfaces

[patoberli]

Hello

Is it with Cisco Works (LMS) 2.5.1 somehow possible to get an email in case a single Switch access port has over 1000 CRC errors?

This would be quite usefull for me, because now I've to do this manually (log into switch, check status of each and every interface and that every so often).

Or do you know any different way?

We have various types of Cisco switches in use.

Thanks,

Patrick

You can make use of DFM for reporting these errors. Use the event "HighErrorRate" and set the threshold of 1000 CRC errors.

Thank you for your answer. I changed the Error Threshold and Error Traffic Threshold, but those are only percentage (%) numbers.

Where could I set it with an ammount?

Thanks,

Patrick
