Monitoring for low light level on MDS switch

[patricksull]

Hi All,

Can anybody advise if it is possible to setup an alerting system for monitoring low light levels on individual SFPs connected to the MDS switches. I have seen alerts crop up in the show logging log, but not sure if we can configure the events to alert?

Thanks Pat
