Measures reported by WAPEmailAlertStTest

Generally, events are activities on the target Cisco Wireless Accesspoint that may require attention. In order to take necessary action on the generated events so that the target Cisco Wireless Accesspoint can be run smoothly, these events are recorded as logs. These logs in turn can be sent over to the administrators via email alerts. If the email alerts fail, then the administrators may not be able to take necessary action in time which may result in the failure of the Cisco Wireless Accesspoint. It is therefore necessary to figure out the count of the emails sent round the clock. The WAPEmailAlertStTest test helps administrators in this regard!

This test helps administrators to figure out the operational status of the Email Alert feature on the target Cisco Wireless Accesspoint. This test also reports the number of email alerts sent to the user and the number of email alerts that failed to be sent to the user.

Note:

For this test to report metrics, it is essential to enable the Email Alert feature on the target Cisco Wireless Accesspoint.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the target Cisco Wireless Accesspoint being monitored.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Up 1
Down 2
Note:

By default, this measure reports the above-mentioned Measure values while indicating the authentication status of each client. However, in the graph of this measure, states will be represented using their corresponding numeric equivalents - i.e., 1 or 2.
Email_fail_count Indicates the number of emails that failed to be sent to the user. Number This measure will be reported only if the Email_feature_oper_st measure reports an ‘Up’ status.
Email_sent_count Indicates the number of emails that were sent to the user. Number This measure will be reported only if the Email_feature_oper_st measure reports an ‘Up’ status.
