Configuring event notifications

Use the CLI commands in this topic to configure event notifications.

To configure event notifications using the CLI:

  1. Enable the CLI configuration mode:

    hostname > enable
    hostname # configure terminal
  2. Check which protocols are already enabled:

    hostname (config) # show fenotify email
    hostname (config) # show fenotify http
    hostname (config) # show fenotify rsyslog
    hostname (config) # show fenotify snmp
  3. Configure the protocols that you want to use:

  4. Confirm that the protocols are configured correctly:

    hostname (config) # show fenotify email
    hostname (config) # show fenotify http
    hostname (config) # show fenotify rsyslog
    hostname (config) # show fenotify snmp
  5. Enable the notifications. By default, notifications are enabled. This command only affects notifications for enabled protocols. If a protocol has been disabled, you must enable the protocol before enabling notifications.

    hostname (config) # fenotify enable
  6. Send a test email message to all enabled recipients:

    hostname (config) # fenotify email send-test
  7. Save the configuration:

    hostname (config) # write memory
