Mario,

CRC errors and collisions are both not standard (MIB-II).
So it depents on the snmp agent if (and where) they are provided.

In general read about "Collecting Historical Performance Information" in
capter 7 in the Users Guide.

Kind regards

Hi Oliver,

My apologies to send this email directly to you, but since you seem to be a
NetView specialist and I have some urgency on this matter, could you give a
little help with this ?

How can I configure NetView to collect and check CRC errors from routers
and switches ports and interfaces and generate an event when a threshold is
reached (% or number) ?

Which MIB variable do I have to use to accomplish this ? I also need to do
the same with packet collisions.

My environment is NetView 7.1.4 running on a Windows 2000 machine. NetView
is not using a RDBMS but I can easily set one up if needed.

Thanks you very much.

Mario
