SMON Overview
Over-extended and probably causing a degradation in performance 
to the users. 
VLAN Statistics represents the information as a horizontal bar chart. Using 
this tool in conjunction with Port Statistics and Switch Statistics makes it 
straightforward to discover the cause of a problem. For example, using 
VLAN Statistics you may discover that there are too many broadcast 
errors on a specific VLAN. You could then use Port Statistics to help 
indicate from which port the problem originates.
Alarms and Events Overview
The Alarms and Events tool reports when a specified counter on selected 
ports, or on a device, cross user defined thresholds. The Alarm Wizard 
provides a simple method for defining upper and lower thresholds of a 
counter on selected ports or on the device. This definition of the 
thresholds is an Alarm.
An Event is the crossing of a defined threshold in the direction it was 
defined. For example, a Rising Event is when the rate of a specified 
counter on a selected port rises above the defined Rising (upper) 
Threshold. A Falling Event is when the rate of a specified counter on a 
selected port falls below the defined Falling (lower) Threshold.
The following figure shows the scheme used to generate Events.
