2. Configure the RMON alarms.
Example  of an alarm that tests every sample for a rising threshold
switch(config)#rmon alarm 5 
1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.1.1.5.65535 interval 30 absolute 
rising-threshold 95 event 27 owner john_smith
Example  of an alarm that tests the delta between samples for a falling threshold
switch(config)#rmon alarm 5 
1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.1.1.5.65535 interval 10 delta 
falling-threshold 65 event 42 owner john_smith
3. Enter the copy command to save the running-config file to the startup-config file.
switch(config)#end
switch#copy running-config startup-config
Configuring RMON events
You can add or remove an event in the RMON event table that is associated with an RMON alarm 
number. 
To configure RMON events, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.
1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
switch#configure terminal
2. Configure the RMON event.
switch(config)#rmon event 27 description Rising_Threshold log owner john_smith 
trap syslog
3. Enter the copy command to save the running-config file to the startup-config file.
switch(config)#end
switch#copy running-config startup-config
Configuring RMON Ethernet group statistics collection
You can collect RMON Ethernet group statistics on an interface. RMON alarms and events must be 
configured for you to display collection statistics. By default, RMON Ethernet group statistics are 
not enabled.
To collect RMON Ethernet group statistics on an interface, perform the following steps from 
Privileged EXEC mode.
1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
switch#configure terminal
2. Enter the interface command to specify the CEE interface type and slot/port number. 
Example  of selecting the Ten Gigabit Ethernet port number 0/1.
switch(config)#interface tengigabitethernet 0/1
3. Enable the CEE interface. 
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#no shutdown
4. Configure RMON Ethernet group statistics on the interface. 
Example 
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#rmon collection stats 200 owner john_smith
