How can I test alerts

[Keith9]

Is there any way I can test alerts from a switch to netsight to email?  Something non disruptive… I’m not on site to pull a power supply or do I want to shut down a link and cause an OSPF recalculation.

I want to ensure a bunch of new switch stacks we installed will be alerting us on things.

Perfect.  I have all my new switches validated.

Hello Keith,

you can sent an test trap with “create snmp trap severity info event test test” on the EXOS switch for example.
