Setting Rate Traps
A screen is also available to specify traps caused when certain rates of activities either exceed or drop below a specified
threshold. To set rate traps, select System Configuration --> SNMP Access --> SNMP Rate Traps from the left menu.
1. Select the threshold type for which you want a rate trap, such as Pkts/sec.
2. Determine whether you want the rate to apply to Switch (the switch as a whole), Wlan (for each WLAN enabled), Ap
(each associated Access Port), or Mu (each mobile unit connected to the switch).
3. Type in the threshold rate into the field associated with the selected object.
4. Traps are only generated for those field where numbers exist. Explanation of the different threshold types are listed
below.
Pkts/s
The maximum threshold for the number of packets per second before a trap is sent.
Throughput
The maximum threshold for the total throughput in Mbps (Megabits per second) for each of the
devices before a trap is sent.
Average Bit Speed
The minimum threshold for the average bit speed in Mbps (Megabits per second) for each of
the devices before a trap is sent.
% Non-Unicast
The maximum threshold for the total percentage of packets that are non-unicast for each of the
devices before a trap is sent. Non-unicast packets include broadcast and multi-cast traffic.
Average Signal
The minimum threshold for the average signal strength in dBm for each of the devices before a
trap is sent.
Average Retries
The maximum threshold for the average number of retries for each of the devices before a trap
is sent.
% Gave Up
The maximum threshold for the total percentage of packets that are given up for each of the
devices before a trap is sent.
