Configure Resource Usage Counter for Multicast Streams
Configure the resource usage counters to query the number of ingress and egress IP multicast streams traversing the switch. After you configure the counter thresholds for ingress and egress records, if the record usage goes beyond the threshold, you receive notification through a trap on the console, a logged message, or both.
About this task
Note
This procedure is supported only on a DvR Controller. It is not supported on a DvR Leaf node.
Important
If you do not configure the thresholds, EDM displays only the ingress and egress records that are currently in use.
You can configure the resource usage counter on a VRF instance the same way you configure the Global Router except that you must first launch the appropriate VRF context.
Procedure
- In the navigation pane, expand .
- Select Multicast.
- Select the Resource Usage tab.
- Configure the ingress and egress thresholds.
- Configure the notification methods.
- Select Apply.
Resource Usage Field Descriptions
Use the data in the following table to use the Resource Usage tab.
Name |
Description |
|
---|---|---|
Egress Records In-Use |
Displays the number of egress records traversing the switch. |
|
Ingress Records In-Use |
Displays the number of ingress records (source or group) traversing the switch. |
|
Egress Threshold |
Configures the egress threshold level (0–32767). |
|
Ingress Threshold |
Configures the ingress threshold level (0–32767). |
|
SendTrapOnly |
Sends only trap notification messages after the number of streams exceeds a threshold level. Select disable if you select a different notification type. You can configure only one notification type. |
|
SendTrapAndLog |
Sends both trap and log notification messages after the number of streams exceeds a threshold level. Select disable if you select a different notification type. |
