Notification configuration
Notifications act as a signal or alert that notifies you when a threshold has been crossed.
When you use alarm notifications, error messages are sent to designated locations such as an
error log, SNMP trap view, or e-mail. With an error log, you can log in to a particular switch to view
the error messages that have been captured for that particular switch. You can parse the log file to
make error message searches quicker and easier.
Configuring alarm notifications
1. Ensure that notifications appear in the error log by using the following command.
switch:admin> fwAlarmsFilterSet 1
The 1 option turns on the alarm notification.
