Sending alerts using e-mail
E-mail alerts allow you to be notified immediately when MAPS detects that an error has occurred. There
is a limit of five e-mail addresses per alert, and the maximum length for each individual e-mail address
is 128 characters.
To configure MAPS to send an alert using e-mail, complete the following steps.
1. Configure and validate the e-mail server. Refer to
Configuring e-mail server information
62for information on specifying the email server to be used.
2. Enter the mapsConfig --emailcfg command to set the e-mail parameters.
To send an alert to multiple email addresses, separate the addresses using a comma.
NOTE
You can also send a test e-mail alert. Refer to
on page 62 for additional
information.
Specifying e-mail address for alerts
The following example specifies the e-mail address for e-mail alerts on the
switch, and then displays the settings. It assumes that you have already correctly
configured and validated the e-mail server.
switch:admin> mapsconfig --emailcfg -address [email protected]
switch:admin> mapsconfig --show
Configured Notifications: RASLOG,EMAIL,FENCE,SW_CRITICAL,SW_MARGINAL
Mail Recipient: [email protected]
