#12 New templates for Cisco 3750 switch
The following modifications of the templates for a Cisco 3750 switch are in use at our site for over a year. The modifications are:
- the number of errors / discards / collisions are computed per second (rate) and per packet (load), rather than per bit.
- in test if_stat also the duplex state (half, full) is shown. An alert is generated in case of a half-duplex connection of 1 Gb/s. (We intend to extend this test to alert on a 100 Mb/s half-duplex connection as well.)
- at the top of the tables the interfaces for which alerts will be generated is *not* shown, using the noalarmsmsg option.
- the layout of the tables is more consistent
Notes:
- The templates are used for 3750 switches running IOS version 12.2(40) or newer
- In the template files TAB characters are used. These are expanded by `svn diff` to multiple spaces, causing the layout to become somewhat messy
- We use the same modifications for other cisco switches as well, notably for 2970 en 6509 switches. The modifications will probably work for a number of other switch types as well.
