How to write the script and to export the result ?

[bensonlei]

Hi, guys,

If any configuration sample ( EEM, TCL..or what else ) of the Cisco CLI script to export the result:

1.  the script task is triggered by some conditions, such as "80% interface traffic utilization" is reached

2. execute and export the result, for example, " show flow monitor NETFLOW-1 cache format table" 

3. export the results to a server (syslog server, or any server ); or save the results locally in Cisco router/switches for later viewing

Many many thanks in advance

Hello,

below an example of an EEM script. The script would send the output of the 'show' command to a FTP server.

The crucial part is: what do you want the script to be triggered on ? In the example below, you would need to enter a syslog pattern (assuming that your netflow config does generate a syslog entry).

The script can also be triggered by an interface value (e.g. txload).

event manager environment _event_pub_sec
event manager applet FLOW_MON
description NETFLOW to FTP
event syslog pattern "pattern"
action 1.0 info type routername
action 2.0 cli command "enable"
action 3.0 cli command "show flow monitor NETFLOW-1 cache format table | append ftp://ftp-server/$_info_routername-log_$_event_pub_sec"
action 4.0 cli command "clear log" pattern "confirm"
action 5.0 cli command "y"
action 6.0 syslog priority informational msg "Log content successfully written to FTP server"
