XMC Alerting based on SNMP trap

nbremmer — Thu, 18 Mar 2021 03:49:25 GMT

I would like to set up email alerts based on the SNMP traps that our Extreme Networks MLXe sends to XMC. Basically, I want to send email/text on any “critical” alarm.

Is there any way to simplify this process? Or do I need to configure custom alarms for each type?

We are trying to tie these alarms to the SysLog Facilities (0-2 = Critical/Email/TXT, 3-6 = email/syslog)

Here’s the basic list of what I’m trying to monitor:

MLXe Chassis

MR2 mgmt

BR-20x10G

PSU1

PSU2

PSU3

PSU4

HSF1

HSF2

HSF3

Fan1

Fan2

Fan3

Fan4

OSPF Link 1/19 10G

OSPF Link 2/19 10G

OSPF Link 1/19 10G

OSPF Link 2/19 10G

OSPF Link 1/18 10G

Hello,

there are several ways to do that. The custom alarms help with this. For example, you can combine the following:

Severity => Critcal

Host => The IPs of the relevant switches

On the switch you have to make sure that only the relevant messages arrive at the XMC as critical. Then you do not have to evaluate each alarm individually.

You can then send an email and an syslog to another server as an action in the custom alarm.
