Appendix A Catalyst 2955-Specific Alarm Commands
alarm profile (global configuration)
Table A-1 lists the alarm IDs and their corresponding alarm descriptions.
After you have created an alarm profile, you can attach the profile to an interface by using the
alarm-profile interface configuration command.
By default, the defaultPort profile is applied to all interfaces. This profile enables only the Port Not
Operating (3) alarm. You can modify this profile by using the alarm profile defaultPort global
configuration command to enter alarm profile configuration mode for this profile.
Examples This example creates the alarm profile fastE for a Fast Ethernet port with the link-down (alarm 1) and
port not forwarding (alarm 2) alarms enabled. The link-down alarm is connected to the minor relay
circuitry and the port not forwarding alarm is connected to the major relay circuitry. In addition, these
alarms will be sent to an SNMP server and written to the system log file (syslog).
Switch(config)# alarm profile fastE
Switch(config-alarm- prof)# alarm 1 2
Switch(config-alarm- prof)# relay major 2
Switch(config-alarm- prof)# relay minor 1
Switch(config-alarm- prof)# notifies 1 2
Switch(config-alarm- prof)# syslog 1 2
This example shows how to delete the alarm relay profile named my-profile.
Switch(config)# no alarm profile my-profile
