Using the SNMP Log Files
If you enable the SNMP logging function (see “Enabling SNMP Logging” on
page 141), it writes system usage and performance data to log files on an
ongoing basis. This data can be useful for trend analysis and capacity
planning.
SNMP logging creates two log files:
• The SNMP log file contains selected bridge and system data.
• The histogram log file contains system usage data on an hour-by-hour
basis.
Both log files are comma-separated-value (CSV) text files. The first line of each
file contains the field names. You can import the files into a spreadsheet or
other application for manipulation and analysis.
Every night, the SNMP logging function closes the current SNMP log file,
archives it as
filename_archivedate.gz
, and begins a new SNMP log file.
Once a week on Sunday night, it closes and archives the current histogram log
file (naming the archive in the same way) and begins a new one.
Contents of SNMP Log File
Figure C-2 shows a sample of an SNMP log file for a three-bridge system.
Because it’s impossible to fit an entire line (row) from the file on one line,
continuations of a single line are shown indented.
The first line in the sample contains the field names. The second and third lines
contain two example records. Note that their time stamps are ten minutes
apart, the polling interval used.
Table C-5 lists the fields in the SNMP log file records, along with brief
descriptions and the data from the two example records shown in the sample.
Note that, after the system data fields, the bridge data fields are repeated for
each additional bridge in the system. In the three-bridge example shown here,
these fields repeat twice (for bridges 2 and 3).
