Brocade: Setting up email alerts

For Brocade optical switches, email alerts are configured as follows:

1. Specify the addresses to which notifications should be sent:
mapsconfig --emailcfg -address myemail1@mycompany.com,myemail2@mycompany.com -from myswitch@mycompany.com

2. To view the notification configuration, use the command:
mapsconfig --show

3. Enabling or disabling additional trigger rules and actions can be done as follows:
mapsconfig --actions email,fpin

4. To generate a test email message, use:
mapsconfig --testmail

5. Sometimes you may need to pause the monitoring of a specific port or other node:
mapsconfig --config pause -type port -members 34

6. To continue monitoring the paused node, run:
mapsconfig --config restart -type port -members 34

7. To reset all alert settings to factory settings, do the following:
mapsconfig --purge -force
