Hi,

You may refer to the below syntax:

event manager applet ping
 event syslog pattern " %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Loopback1, changed state to down" period 1
 action 1.0 cli command "enable"
 action 2.0 cli command "conf t"
 action 3.0 cli command "do ping 8.8.8.8"
 action 4.0 regexp "100 percent" "$_cli_result"
 action 5.0 if $_regexp_result eq "1"
 action 5.1  syslog priority debugging msg "Ping success"
 action 5.2 end
 action 6.0 if $_regexp_result eq "0"
 action 6.1  syslog priority debugging msg "Ping fail"
 action 6.2 end

debug:

Hey @ronsametcohen :)

@ngkin2010already posted a script showing exactly what do to, thanks!

The key info on this:

You can log custom Syslog messages with EEM, just like shown in the script by @ngkin2010 .

Then, just create another EEM Script that reacts on your custom Syslogs!

Let me know what you think and if you need help with that.
Best regards
Juls
