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.
2. Enter the following command if you decide not to have notifications sent.
switch:admin> fwAlarmsFilterSet 0
The 0 option turns the alarm notification off.
All notifications are suppressed when alarm notifications are turned off, except for the Environment
class and Resource class.
3. Verify or view your current alarm notifications by using the fwAlarmsFilterShow command.
switch:admin> fwalarmsfiltershow
FW: Alarms are enabled
