I have a Juniper SSG320M running ScreenOS 6.2 (actually 2 of them in an HA active/passive).

I want to measure the bandwidth consumed on one of the interfaces, and throw an alarm if that exceeds a certain threshold (e.g. >1Mbit/sec). Is there some way to do this with the native functionality in ScreenOS? I searched for this, but could not find an answer.

Note that I am interested in both ingress and egress bandwidth.

Edit: Any type of alarm will do. It can simply be a message in the log that I can grep for later.

You can set alarm thresholds on policy rules1. Would that suffice? I haven't found another way to do this. I would use an external host and read the counters using SNMP.
