SFM monitoring

FE Health Monitoring

All SFM-FEs are periodically polled to check for any access issues. When the number of error events in a polling window crosses the threshold, action is taken. You can configure the parameters using the sysmon fe-access-check command.

device(config)# sysmon fe-access-check ?
Possible completions:
  action               Set Fe-Access-Check action
  disable              Disable Fe Access Check (Default: Enabled)
  poll-interval        Set Fe-Access-Check poll-interval
  recovery-threshold   Set Fe-Access-Check recovery threshold
  threshold            Set Fe-Access-Check threshold
device(config)#

SFM Walk

This algorithm tries to isolate an SFM-FE in case of egress TM reassembly errors. It disables an SFM-FE, monitors egress TM reassembly errors and then either isolates it or re-enables it before moving on to next SFM-FE. This can be triggered manually or by egress monitoring running on TMs. You can configure the parameters using the sysmon sfm-walk command.

device(config)# sysmon sfm-walk ?
Possible completions:
  auto                       Enable Auto SFM Walk (Default: Disabled)
  disable-redundancy-check   Disable SFM Walk redundancy check (Default:
                             Enabled)
  poll-interval              Set SFM Walk poll-interval
  threshold                  Set SFM Walk reassembly error threshold
device(config)#

Use the sysmon sfm-walk command to manually start or stop SFM walk.

device# sysmon sfm-walk ?
Possible completions:
  start   Start SFM Walk
  stop    Stop SFM Walk

FE Link CRC Monitoring

All SFM-FE and TM fabric links are polled periodically to check for slow CRC errors. When the number of CRC events in a window crosses threshold, action is taken. You can configure the parameters using the sysmon link-crc-monitoring command.

device(config)# sysmon link-crc-monitoring ?
Possible completions:
  action          Set Link CRC Monitoring action
  disable         Disable Link CRC Monitoring (Default: Enabled)
  poll-interval   Set Link CRC Monitoring poll-interval
  threshold       Set Link CRC Monitoring threshold
device(config)#
