Configuring Serial Port Monitor Alert and Trap Configuration

The SX-560 module can be configured to scan and compare the data received on the serial port to user- defined strings. A match with a string can be a source for SNMP traps and/or email alerts.

The match strings and corresponding email or web page message strings are configured from the Internal Configuration Console interface.

Table 27 describes the Monitor Alert and Trap Configuration Commands (the examples are for serial port 1; for serial port 2, substitute the port name S2 instead of S1.
