Conguring CMC To Send Alerts
You can set alerts and actions for certain events that occur on the chassis. An event is generated when a device or service’s status has
changed or an error condition is detected. If an event matches an event lter and you have congured this lter to generate an alert
message (email alert or SNMP trap), then an alert is sent to one or more congured destinations such as email address, IP address, or an
external server.
To congure CMC to send alerts:
1 Enable the Chassis Event Alerts option.
2 Optionally, lter the alerts based on category or severity.
3 Congure the email alert or SNMP trap settings.
4 Enable chassis event alerts to send an e-mail alert, or SNMP traps to congured destinations.
