Embedded event manager

Hi team
I had open a post in lan switching for this particular problem and the expert from that forum has given the solution of embedded event manager so i need a help from this forum.
The probelm defination is==
Cisco 6509 (Core switch) connected to firewall on uplink side and on downlink its connected to 2 diffrent Cisco 6509 switches (Distribution) layer.All these links have been configured as Routed link and not as SVI.Now issue is when both the downlinks (coming from both distribution) switches go down i want to make the uplink from core to firewall to go down so that other core switch will take over and transfer teh traffic.
Attached diagram has details.tried configuring HSRP between 2 core switches but as teh links are routed link HSRP not working and both switches remain master but as on oppsite side Juniper firewall NSRP is implemented 2nd firewall not responding and core-2 ==fw2 link not transfer traffic.now when both the links of core go down link from core1-fw1 should go down so Fw2 will get active and will send traffic on link betwene core2-firewall2..please let me know what kind of configursation is required in EEM..

Do the following (assuming you have a disk0:):
mkdir disk0:/policies
copy tftp://x.x.x.x/sl_intf_watch.tcl disk0:/policies
config t
event manager directory user policy disk0:/policies
event manager environment intf_watch_interfaces TenGigabitEthernet9/1,TenGigabitEthernet9/3
event manager environment intf_watch_uplink GigabitEthernet1/2
event manager policy sl_intf_watch.tcl
Where x.x.x.x is the IP address of your TFTP server.
After that, the policy is registered, and waiting for the interfaces to go down.

Embedded Event Manager - SNMP - run TCL script

I would like to run a tcl script on a router using snmp. I understand Embedded Event Manager can do this but haven't found what I need to run that. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Yeah, you could do this, but it depends on your version of IOS. You will need EEM 3.1 or higher (15.0) to be able to intercept SNMP GET requests. Then, you could do something like:
event manager applet snmp-trigger event snmp-object oid 1.9.9.9.9 type gauge sync yes istable no action 1.0 policy my_tcl_policy.tcl action 2.0 snmp-object-value event-id _event_id gauge 0 next-oid 1.9.9.9.9.0 action 3.0 exit 1!snmp-server manager
Then, when you query 1.9.9.9.9.0 on the device, the Tcl policy "my_tcl_policy.tcl" should execute, and the snmp-trigger applet policy will return a value of 0.

Monitoring PRI using Embedded Event Manager

Hi,
I am trying to use Embedded Event Manager to flag when calls on a pri get above
28 but its not working. I found an OID which shows number of calls currently on
the B Channels of a pri. I dropped the threshold to two just to check it was
functioning correctly. Config below:
event manager applet bchan-mon
event snmp oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.10.19.1.1.11 get-type exact entry-op gt entry-val
2 poll-interval 60
action exceeded syslog priority critical msg "All Chanels in Use"
I have done a debug and it says the OID is not found even though if i do a show
snmp mib i see the OID. Output below:
Feb 9 08:35:58.097: fh_process_async: re=445EF694, timer_type=POLL
Feb 9 08:35:58.097: snmp_entry_value_check: OID unavailable, value check

Feb 9 08:35:58.097: fh_process_async: update_t=0cron_tick: num_matches 0
Has anyone successfullly used EEM to do this?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Joe,
I get this from an snmp walk:

The device is a cisco 2851 and the IOS is C2800NM-SPSERVICESK9-M 12.4(18e).
If i run a debug now after adding the 0 i dont get a OID error not found anymore but its still not flagging the message in the log when the amount of calls go above 2. See below:

Cisco Embedded Event Manager Issue

Hello Experts,
I have taken the following sample EEM from
https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/blogs/network-sheriff/2009/06/19/writing-your-first-eem-applet
The intention is to send a notification to an email address about a network problem. I have modified it bit for illustrative purposes. You will see that there are various show commands.
Can someone please show me how to email the show commands instead just appending them to the directory called "server_unreachable"?
TechWiseTV4506(config)#eve
nt manager environment _email_server 172.16.1.44 (<-my Post Cast server)
TechWiseTV4506(config)#event manager environment _email_to [email protected]
TechWiseTV4506(config)#event manager environment _email_from [email protected]
event manager applet email_server_unreachable
event track 10 state down
action 1.0 syslog msg "Houston we have a problem. Ping failed, server unreachable!"
action 1.1 cli command "enable"
action 1.2 cli command "del /force flash:server_unreachable"
action 1.3 cli command "show clock | append server_unreachable"
action 1.4 cli command "show ip arp 172.16.1.55 | append server_unreachable"
action 1.5 cli command "show ip route 172.16.1.55 | append server_unreachable"
action 1.6 cli command "show interface FastEthernet0/1/1 | append server_unreachable"
action 1.7 cli command "more flash:server_unreachable"
action 1.8 mail server "$_email_server" to "$_email_to" from "$_email_from" subject "Server Unreachable: ICMP-Echos Failed" body "$_cli_result
action 1.9 syslog msg "Server unreachable alert has been sent to email server!"
Cheers
Carlton

This applet will actually email the results. However, in order to get all of the output together, it uses the server_unreachable file as an accumulator buffer. That file could be deleted as action 2.0:
action 2.0 cli command "delete /force flash:server_unreachable"
But that is already there in action 1.2, so it's not really needed.
What will happen is the applet will more the file to collect all of the output. That aggregated output will be stored in the $_cli_result variable. The result is that the body of your email will contain the consolidated command output.

Embeded Event Manager on cisco 3560 switch

Can someone help me please? I have EEM configured on cisco 3560 switch. The configuration is below. I want that switch inform me through email when device with particilular IP address become unavailable. For some reason this configuration is not good and I can't tell why. I already try to debug this with debug event manager action mail but didn't see any output .
ip sla 11
icmp-echo ip address
frequency 20
ip sla schedule 11 life forever start-time now
event manager applet device-TEST
event snmp oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.42.1.2.9.1.6.11 get-type exact entry-op lt entry-val "2" poll-interval 20
trigger occurs 5 period 120
action 02.0 mail server "ip address" to "[email protected]" from "[email protected]" subject "device is down"

The mail part looks good, I'm not sure you are hitting the trigger right.
Why not do a track on the ip sla instead of the snmp stuff?
Here's a good example of that.

Problem with Embedded Event Manager and Object Tracking

Hi,
I have a 2801 running c2801-advipservicesk9-mz.124-24.T2.bin. It has the following configuration:
track 300 list boolean or
object 10
object 11
object 12
object 13
event manager applet clear_ipsec_tunnel
event track 300 state down
action 1.0 cli command "enable"
action 2.0 cli command "clear crypto session"
action 3.0 syslog msg "IPSec tunnel has been cleared by clear_ipsec_tunnel applet"
My problem is that after the tracked object number 300 transitions from an up state to a down state, nothing happens. It seems like the applet doesn't work with object tracking. Here's what I see in logs:
Dec 7 21:52:32.236 MCK: %TRACKING-5-STATE: 12 ip sla 12 reachability Up->Down
Dec 7 21:52:37.236 MCK: %TRACKING-5-STATE: 13 ip sla 13 reachability Up->Down
Dec 7 21:52:57.236 MCK: %TRACKING-5-STATE: 10 ip sla 10 reachability Up->Down
Dec 7 21:53:07.236 MCK: %TRACKING-5-STATE: 11 ip sla 11 reachability Up->Down
Dec 7 21:53:07.996 MCK: %TRACKING-5-STATE: 300 list boolean or Up->Down
That's it. For some reason, the applet won't execute the CLI commands when the EEM applet is triggered. Am I doing something wrong or I have encountered some bug? Thanks.

jclarke,
Today I added the router into the tacacs server database and the applet started working just fine by using my login name. So the working configuration looks like this:
event manager session cli username "my login name"
event manager applet clear_ipsec_tunnel
event track 300 state down maxrun 30
action 1.0 cli command "enable"
action 2.0 cli command "clear crypto session"
action 3.0 syslog msg "IPSec tunnel has been cleared by clear_ipsec_tunnel applet"
Then I tried to use a login name from the local database that has "privelege 15" access and of course the debug output showed me this:
Dec 8 18:12:58.203 MCK: %TRACKING-5-STATE: 300 list boolean or Up->Down

Dec 8 18:12:58.775 MCK: %HA_EM-6-LOG: clear_ipsec_tunnel : DEBUG(cli_lib) : : CTL : cli_close called.
So I guess this problem arises when you have command authorization enabled and the tacacs server is not reachable or something like that. I have tried to find a way to use the local database instead of using the aaa server but didn't succeed. Although I have found an interesting workaround. Here it is:
Link: http://blog.ioshints.info/2007/05/command-authorization-fails-with-eem.html
Workaround found after reading the "Executing IOS commands from Tcl shell" from the "Tclsh on Cisco IOS tutorial".
On the above article it is mentionned that the ios_config command is executed inside the context of another VTY line (also found with the AAA debug). The workaround is to define the FIRST VTY line with "transport input none" to prevent ssh or telnet to grab it and to configure the aaa authorization without any command authorization for this line.
Kind regards
Christian Chautems
Looks great, but I am not quite sure how to "configure the aaa authorization without any command authorization for this line".
Anyway, jclarke thank you so much for taking your time to look into my problem and for your help.

Embedded Event manager scripting help

Hello,
I'm looking into a way to do the following:
If pinging of BGP peer detects packet loss, or circuit flapping, lets say 5 flaps in 60 secs, then I'd like the bgp peering to go into admin down state.
Would be nice if it also recovered on its own when 1hour or X of stability was detected.
Thank you

I found a good doc and think i'll be going with this:

Embedded Event Manager Versions on Routers

Hello Community,
Can someone please tell me if its possible to load a EEM version on a 3600 higher than 2.1 or on a 3700 higher than 2.2?
Cheers
Carlton

The EEM version is fixed to the IOS. See https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-8799 on how to figure out what version is available on your device. EEM 2.2 requires 12.4(2)T or higher and 2.3 requires 12.4(11)T or higher.

Cisco Embedded Event Manager Book

Hello All,
Can someone let me know if they're any books currently available which I focused purely on Cisco EEM?
I would very much like to learn/practice EEM. I appreciate there is a lot of samples here, however I would like a more structured approach to learning EEM.
Cheers

There is no book dedicated to EEM. The "Tcl Scripting for IOS" book from Cisco Press does cover EEM in some detail, though.

Event Manager question. Monitoring DNS entry.

Hello everybody,
I want to use Cisco Embedded Event Manager in a router for monitoring a DNS entry that normally resolves 1.1.1.1 but if it changes to 2.2.2.2 the router has to change some access list automatically in order to permit different routes.
I know how to configure de "action" sentences for change the ACLs but I dont know how to configure a track or a SLA in order to check the DNS entry and react if it changes.
Someone knows how to do that?
event manager applet ChangeRoutesWhenDNSEntryChanges
event track 21 state ??????????????????????????????????????????????????<----------
action 1.0 cli command "enable"
action 2.0 cli command "configure terminal"
action 3.0 cli command "ip access...
Thank you in advance!!
Marcos.

Indeed, I just provided the above example to demonstrate how we can force a DNS lookup and parse the IP address...
I was actually thinking about using the IP SLA DNS probe, but I could not find a way to get the IP address from the results... It just shows the response time.
In order to make the script work, we would most likely need to use some timer to trigger it periodically.
This is an adaptation of my previous example to actually accomplish a periodic check:
event manager applet CHECK-DNS
event timer watchdog time 60
action 1.0 cli command "ena"
action 1.1 cli command "ping host1 repeat 1 timeout 0"
action 2.0 regexp "ICMP Echos to (.*), timeout is 0 seconds:" "$_cli_result" _match _ip
action 3.0 if $_ip ne 1.1.1.1
action 4.0 syslog msg "host1 is now $_ip"
action 5.0 end
If you want to do something as a reaction to detecting the change, that would have to go into the "4.0" block (you can use 4.1, 4.2 etc)
Another thing to consider is that this script would run every minute, so as long as the DNS query resolves to anything but 1.1.1.1 we would re-apply the config changes, which is not that good...
A way to solve this can be seen in the next example:
event manager applet HOST1-NOT-1.1.1.1
event timer watchdog time 60
action 1.0 cli command "ena"
action 1.1 cli command "ping host1 repeat 1 timeout 0"
action 2.0 regexp "ICMP Echos to (.*), timeout is 0 seconds:" "$_cli_result" _match _ip
action 2.1 track read 100
action 3.0 if $_ip eq 1.1.1.1
action 4.0 if $_track_state eq down
action 4.1   track set 100 state up
action 4.2   syslog msg "host1 is now 1.1.1.1 again"
action 4.9 end
action 5.0 else
action 6.1 if $_track_state eq up
action 6.2   track set 100 state down
action 6.3   syslog msg "host1 is not 1.1.1.1, new ip is $_ip"
action 6.9 end
action 7.0 end
Basically we are using a stub tracking object to maintain state. Track object 100 would be up if we know host1=1.1.1.1, but if we detect it is something else we change it to down. Only after we detect that host1=1.1.1.1 again we change the track object back to up, which would enabled detecting another change...
Any actions you want to take should go into section "6" and any clean up (when host1=1.1.1.1 again) has to go into section "4".
It is possible to make this detect any change and not just have a static 1.1.1.1 value by assigning the newly detected value to a variable and basically look for a change... Not sure what is your requirement.
The output below shows how this works...
Router#show run | inc ip host
ip host host1 1.1.1.1

Embedded Project Manager Buttons

Is there a way to disable front panel activity on the Embedded Project Manager while it is still performing the actions on the last user request? Here is the problem I'm running into, I haven't added a progress display for the download button yet (I know I need to). Therefore when I clicked the Download button I wasn't sure if the code had finished so I clicked it several times. It turns out that it runs that many times in a row. I think disabling front panel updates on the event structure would provide a more logical operation.

Thanks, I can handle that. What I did also was to show a modal progress VI that prevents the user from clicking anything in LabVIEW until the download is complete.

Business Event Brochure in Training and Event Management?

Hi Guru's
My client has a requirement as follows. The training administrator decides the Business Event Types which for which superiors can book their subordinates or not. Those events are stored at a particular place. Once the administrator stores them, a mail should be triggered to all the superiors. Thus superior can have a list of event types for which he can book his subordinates. When he books for such events, a mail should be triggered to his subordinates regarding the training event. If an employee books for an event, a mail should be triggered to his superior for approval.
How is this possible? According to me, those events will be "Included in Brochure" (in Business Event Type Infotype). Am I right?
Please suggest me.
Points assured!
Thanks in advance.

TEM and FI/CO (Training and Event Management)

Hi All,
I wish to track actual cost per event in PE (TEM - Training and Event Management). Was considering having a Internal order per Instance of event. Have any Idea on how to set up something like this?
Appreciate all ideas,
LB

Hi Dean,
using internal orders you have to consider that sending and receiving cost center have to in the same company code.
If you do not want to distribute the costs to FI/CO but only report them, you can use the cost items provided by TEM. We have set up something similar for our plants in South Europe.
We have created some cost items and fill them manually with the training costs. Additionally we have created a report that evaluated this costs and combines them with the employee costs (derived from salary).
Best regards
