event applet and email notification.

[sarahr202]

Hi everybody.

I was reading how EEM feature( no clue what does EEM stands for).  As part of my lab to test that feature ,I want my router to send me an email at mike@gmail.com everytime someone issues the command " clear counters" on the router.

Here is what I did:

event manager applet see

event cli pattern " clear counters" sync no skip no occurs 1

action A mail server "mail.google.com" to "

mike@gmail.com

" from " mike2@gmail.com

" subject " counter reset" body " All interfaces are just reset"

But yet I am unable to receive any email when i issue " clear counters" on the router

Is something wrong with my config ?

thanks and have a great weekend.

hello Sarah,

EEM stands for Embedded Event Manager.

According to my personal experience SNMP is easy to use than EEM. Because you can tweak SNMP settings and get really good result.

But here is the example about the CPU use and you can change the command according to your needs.
