[cisco-voip] How to alert on PRI capacity?

The important thing to remember is that things like MRTG and cacti use polling based stats, and unless you wanna hammer your ports with SNMP querries every minute, you won't get that accurate a measurement. OK for provisioning, but even in that case, not perfect.  You'd probably have to set your water mark lower to capture that alarm status.

  Jonathan,

   

  We use cacti to monitor the PRI usage and you could use a plugin, like thold, to alert on the thresholds.

  Hey all,

   

    I'm trying to find a way to set up an alert to notify me when my PRI fills up.  I've never found anything like this in CCM, but I'm guessing there's a way to do it with SNMP (We use OpenNMS for monitoring).  Essentially a warning when the PRI is 90% full or an error when it's 100%.

   

  Has anyone already attempted this before, or have any ideas on how to make this a reality?

   

  Currently using 2821's with T1 cards running MGCP.

   

  Thanks,

  JM
