The delta baseline configuration then allows for defining the level of the event based on the percentage of change, for the defaults, this would result in a Major, you can see the configuration in the example below, this table is how to visualize the configuration.

Change %Resulting Event Level
10Warning
20Minor
30Major
40Critical
50Fatal

If the change is below 10% the level will be normal, between 10% and 20% Minor, and so up to over 50% it will be considered fatal.

Delta Baseline for Output Packets Discarded Configuration Example

Currently delta baselines do not support multi-day, but the hours value can be very large if required.

Code Block
  'ifOutDiscards' => {
    'baseline' => 'delta',
    'active' => 'true',
    'metric' => 'ifOutDiscards',
    'type' => 'pkts_hc',
    'use_index' => 'interface',
    'nodeModel' => 'CiscoRouter',
    'event' => 'Proactive Output Discards (Delta)',
    'indexed' => 'true',
    'hours' => 1,
    'threshold_period' => "-15 minutes",
    'levels' => {
      'Warning' => 1,
      'Minor' => 2,
      'Major' => 3,
      'Critical' => 4,
      'Fatal' => 7
    }
  },
