Configuring Call Home
Copying a Destination Profile
To create a new destination profile by copying an existing profile, perform this task:
Subscribing to Alert Groups
An alert group is a predefined subset of Call Home alerts supported on the switch. Different types of Call
Home alerts are grouped into different alert groups depending on their type. These alert groups are
available:
• Configuration
• Diagnostic
• Environment
• Inventory
• Syslog
The triggering events for each alert group are listed in the “Alert Group Trigger Events and Commands”
section on page 59-18, and the contents of the alert group messages are listed in the “Message Contents”
section on page 59-21.
Step 5
Switch(cfg-call-home-profile)#
destination address {email
email-address | http url}
Configures the destination e-mail address or URL to which
Call Home messages will be sent.
Note When entering a destination URL, include either
http:// or https://, depending on whether the server
