DESCRIPTION
You can use the snmp-dca-base component to configure a custom monitor, or you can use the default base SNMP
DCA monitor that the Local Traffic Manager provides. This type of monitor checks the performance of a server
running an SNMP agent such as UC Davis. Use this monitor only when you want the load balancing destination to
be based solely on user data, and not CPU, memory or disk use.
EXAMPLES
create snmp-dca-base my_snmp-dca-base defaults-from snmp_dca_base
Creates a monitor named my_snmp-dca-base that inherits properties from the default base SNMP DCA monitor.
list snmp-dca-base
Displays the properties of all of the base SNMP DCA 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 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_dca_base.
description
User defined description.
glob Displays the items that match the glob expression. See help glob for a description of glob expression
syntax.
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.
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.
time-until-up
Specifies the amount of time, in seconds, after the first successful response before a node is marked up.
A value of 0 (zero) causes a node to be marked up immediately after a valid response is received from the
node. The default value is 0 (zero).
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.
user-defined
Specifies any user-defined command-line arguments and variables that the external program requires. Use
the following syntax to specify a user defined parameter.
modify external my_external user-defined my_param_name my_param_value
Use the following syntax to remove a user defined parameter.
modify external my_external user-defined my_param_name none
version
Specifies the version of SNMP that the host server uses. The default value is none.
