The only things you can set and monitor are rmon events and alarms,
which you set up. You can fire a trap on alarm treshold. Its under the
rmon command. The event fires the trap when a corresponding alarm is
triggered.
Havn't tried it yet. Not sure what the limits are on the mib variables
you can test.
