Attaching an Alarm Profile to a Specific Port
In interface configuration mode, you can use the
alarm-profile
command to attach an alarm profile to a
specific port.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to attach an alarm profile to a port:
To detach an alarm profile from a specific port, use the
no alarm-profile
name
interface configuration
command.
This example attaches an alarm profile named
fastE
to a port.
Switch(config)#
interface fastethernet 1/2
Switch(config-if)#
alarm profile fastE
This example detaches an alarm profile named
fastE
from a port.
Switch(config)#
interface fastethernet 1/2
Switch(config-if)#
no alarm profile fastE
Enabling SNMP Traps
Use the
snmp-server enable traps alarms
global configuration command to enable the switch to send
alarm
traps.
Note
Before using alarm profiles to set the switch to send SNMP alarm trap notifications to an SNMP server,
you must first enable SNMP by using the
snmp-server enable traps alarms
global configuration
command.
