DESCRIPTION
       You can use the snmp-link component to configure a custom monitor, or
       you can use the default SNMP Link monitor that the Global Traffic
       Manager provides. This type of monitor checks the current CPU, memory,
       and disk usage of a pool, pool member, or virtual server that is
       running an SNMP data collection agent, and then dynamically load
       balances traffic accordingly.

EXAMPLES
       create snmp-link my_snmp-link defaults-from snmp_link

       Creates a monitor named my_snmp-link that inherits properties from the
       default SNMP Link monitor.

       list snmp-link

       Displays the properties of all of the SNMP Link monitors.

OPTIONS
       app-service
	    Specifies the name of the application service to which the monitor
	    belongs. The default value is none. Note: If the strict-updates
	    option is enabled on the application service that owns the object,
	    you cannot modify or delete the monitor. Only the application
	    service can modify or delete the monitor.

       community
	    Specifies the community name that the BIG-IP(r) system must use to
	    authenticate with the host server through SNMP. The default value
	    is public.

       defaults-from
	    Specifies the name of the monitor from which you want your custom
	    monitor to inherit settings. The default value is snmp_link.

       description
	    User defined description.

       destination
	    Specifies the IP address of the resource that is the destination
	    of this monitor. The default value is *.

	    Possible values are:

	    *	 Specifies to perform a health check on the IP address of the
		 node.

	    IP address
		 Specifies to perform a health check on the IP address that
		 you specify, route the check through the IP address of the
		 associated node, and mark the IP address of the associated
		 node up or down accordingly.

       glob Displays the items that match the glob expression. See help glob
	    for a description of glob expression syntax.

       ignore-down-response
	    Specifies whether the monitor ignores a down response from the
	    system it is monitoring. The default value is disabled.

       interval
	    Specifies the frequency at which the system issues the monitor
	    check. The default value is 10 seconds.

       name Specifies a unique name for the component. This option is required
	    for the commands create, delete, and modify.

       partition
	    Displays the administrative partition within which the component
	    resides.

       port Specifies the port number to which this monitor sends SNMP traps.
	    The default value is 161.

       probe-attempts
	    Specifies the number of times the BIG-IP system attempts to probe
	    the host server, after which the BIG-IP system considers the host
	    server down or unavailable. The default value is 3.

       probe-interval
	    Specifies the frequency at which the BIG-IP system probes the host
	    server. The default value is 0.

       probe-timeout
	    Specifies the number of seconds after which the BIG-IP system
	    times out the probe request to the BIG-IP system. The default
	    value is 5 seconds.

       regex
	    Displays the items that match the regular expression. The regular
	    expression must be preceded by an at sign (@[regular expression])
	    to indicate that the identifier is a regular expression. See help
	    regex for a description of regular expression syntax.

       timeout
	    Specifies the number of seconds the target has in which to respond
	    to the monitor request. The default value is 30 seconds.

	    If the target responds within the set time period, it is
	    considered up. If the target does not respond within the set time
	    period, it is considered down. Also, if the target responds with a
	    RESET packet, the system immediately flags the target as down
	    without waiting for the timeout interval to expire.

       version
	    Specifies the SNMP version the monitor uses. The default value is
	    none.
