12.4(20)T
The tag and maxrun keywords were added to support multiple event statements within an applet.
Usage Guidelines
EEM usually schedules and runs policies on the basis of an event specification that is contained within the policy itself. The event none command allows EEM to identify an EEM policy that can either be run manually or be run when an EEM applet is triggered. To run the policy, use either the action policy command in applet configuration mode or the event manager run command in global configuration mode.
Examples
The following example shows how to register a policy named manual-policy to be run manually and then how to execute the policy:
Router(config)# event manager applet manual-policy Router(config-applet)# event none Router(config-applet)# exit Router(config)# event manager run manual-policyevent routing
To publish an event when route entries change in Routing Information Base (RIB) infrastructure, use the event routing command in applet configuration mode. To stop publishing events when route entries change in RIB, use the no form of this command.

next
Retrieves the object ID that is the alphanumeric successor to the object ID specified by the oid-value argument.
entry-op
Compares the contents of the current object ID with the entry value using the specified operator. If there is a match, an event is triggered and event monitoring is disabled until the exit criteria are met.

(Optional) Specifies a number used to calculate the period used for rate-based calculations. The average-factor-value is multiplied by the poll-int-value to derive the period in milliseconds.
average-factor-value
(Optional) Number in the range from 1 to 64. The minimum average factor value is 1.
poll-interval
Specifies the time interval between consecutive polls.
poll-int-value
Number that represents seconds and optional milliseconds in the format ssssss[.mmm]. The range for seconds is from 1 to 4294967295. The range for milliseconds is from 0 to 999. The minimum polling interval is 1 second.

Usage Guidelines
An EEM event is triggered when one of the fields specified by an SNMP object ID crosses a defined threshold. If multiple conditions exist, the SNMP event will be triggered when all the conditions are met.
Exit criteria are optional. If exit criteria are not specified, event monitoring will be reenabled immediately. If exit criteria are specified--on the basis of values or time periods--event monitoring is not reenabled until the criteria are met.
When the entry-op keyword is used and there is a match, an event is triggered and event monitoring is disabled until the exit criteria are met.
When the exit-op keyword is used and there is a match, an event is triggered and event monitoring is reenabled.
The entry-typekeyword triggers one of the following actions:
- If the value keyword is specified, the entry-value is an actual value and an SNMP event is raised whenever the absolute value occurs.
- If the increment keyword is specified, the entry-value is an increment and an SNMP event is raised whenever the incremental value is reached.
- If the rate keyword is specified, the entry-value is a rate of change and an SNMP event is raised whenever the rate of change value is reached.
When the optional exit-typekeyword is used, the following occurs:
- If the value keyword is specified, the exit-value is an actual value and the event monitoring is reenabled whenever the absolute value occurs. This is the default.
- If the increment keyword is specified, the exit-value is an increment and the event monitoring is reenabled whenever the incremental value is reached.
- If the rate keyword is specified, the exit-value is a rate of change and the event monitoring is reenabled whenever the rate of change value is reached.
The increment and rate types are supported only for the following OID types: INTEGER_TYPE, COUNTER_TYPE, and COUNTER_64_TYPE.
Examples
The following example shows how an EEM applet called memory-fail will run when there is an exact match on the value of a specified SNMP object ID that represents the amount of current process memory. A message saying that process memory is exhausted and noting the current available memory will be sent to syslog.
Router(config)# event manager applet memory-fail Router(config-applet)# event snmp oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.48.1.1.1.6.1 get-type exact entry-op lt entry-val 5120000 poll-interval 10 Router(config-applet)# action 1.0 syslog msg "Memory exhausted; current available memory is $_snmp_oid_val bytes"The following example shows an EEM applet called IPSLAping1 being registered to run when there is an exact match on the value of a specified SNMP object ID that represents a successful IP SLA ICMP echo operation (this is equivalent to a ping command). Four actions are triggered when the echo operation fails, and event monitoring is disabled until after the second failure.
A message saying that the ICMP echo operation to a server failed is sent to syslog, an SNMP trap is generated, EEM publishes an application-specific event, and a counter called IPSLA1F is incremented by a value of one.
Router(config)# event manager applet IPSLAping1 Router(config-applet)# event snmp oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.42.1.2.9.1.6.4 get-type exact entry-op eq entry-val 1 exit-op eq exit-val 2 poll-interval 5 Router(config-applet)# action 1.0 syslog priority critical msg "Server IP echo failed: OID=$_snmp_oid_val" Router(config-applet)# action 1.1 snmp-trap strdata "EEM detected server reachability failure to 10.1.88.9" Router(config-applet)# action 1.2 publish-event sub-system 88000101 type 1 arg1 10.1.88.9 arg2 IPSLAEcho arg3 failevent snmp-notification
To register the event criteria for an Embedded Event Manager (EEM) applet that is run by sampling Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) notification, use the event snmp-notificationcommand in applet configuration mode. To remove the SNMP notification event criteria, use the no form of this command.

- GAUGE_TYPE
- TIME_TICKS_TYPE
- COUNTER_64_TYPE
- OCTET_PRIM_TYPE
- OPAQUE_PRIM_TYPE

(Optional) Specifies the maximum runtime of the applet. If the maxrun keyword is specified, the maxruntime-number value must be specified. If the maxrun keyword is not specified, the default applet run time is 20 seconds.
maxruntime-number
(Optional) Number of seconds specified in ssssssss[.mmm] format, where ssssssss must be an integer representing seconds between 0 and 31536000, inclusive, and where mmm must be an integer representing milliseconds between 0 and 999).

Usage Guidelines
There are two entry variables associated with this command:
- _track_number--Number of the tracked object that caused the event to be triggered.
- _track_state--State of the tracked object when the event was triggered; valid states are “up” or “down.”
This command is used to help track objects using EEM. Each tracked object is identified by a unique number that is specified on the tracking command-line interface (CLI). Client processes such as EEM use this number to track a specific object. The tracking process periodically polls the tracked objects and notes any change of value. The changes in the tracked object are communicated to interested client processes, either immediately or after a specified delay. The object values are reported as either up or down.
Examples
The following example shows how to specify event criteria based on a tracked object:
event manager applet track-ten event track 10 state any action 1.0 track set 10 state up action 2.0 track read 10Related Commands
