Note 1188.0                    packet probe rmon ?                    No replies

    How do I collect data from a packet probe into Polycenter Netview.  
    
    If I collect RMON data from a Cabletron hub there is always a
    consistent instance from which the data may be accessed.  I find with
    the packet probe that the instance will change depending on what you
    are looking at with the probe. 
    
    For example if you look at just the default probe instance, the
    instance will change each time that you restart collecting on this
    instance.  Is there a way to start RMON on certain data and specify the
    instance into which this data will be collected.  
    
    Cross posted in hub_mgmt
    
    Thanks

2183.1Set up probe for generic RMONNAC::FORRESTFri Apr 21 1995 20:3916
    Harry, which version of DECpacketprobe firmware are you running? V1.0
    is still shipping, but V2.1 and V2.3 are now available on the network. 
    The Release Notes for V2.1 describe how to set up the DECpacketprobe to
    work with RMON applications other than PROBEwatch. Maybe this is the
    problem.
    
    Basically, go into command line mode on the probe console and 
    	1. Set Agent_options mib_checks on
        2. Set Agent_options mib_defaults on
        3. Set Agent_options default_groups on
    
    
    The Release Notes can be found at
