Configuring Cisco IOS Agents
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable the CNS event agent on the switch:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
cns event {hostname | ip-address}
[port-number] [backup] [failover-time
seconds] [keepalive seconds retry-count]
[reconnect time] [source ip-address]
Step 3
end
Step 4
show cns event connections
Step 5
show running-config
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config
To disable the CNS event agent, use the no cns event {ip-address | hostname} global configuration
command.
This example shows how to enable the CNS event agent, set the IP address gateway to 10.180.1.27, set
120 seconds as the keepalive interval, and set 10 as the retry count.
Switch(config)# cns event 10.180.1.27 keepalive 120 10

(Optional) For port number, enter the port number for the event
gateway. The default port number is 11011.

the backup gateway is established.
(Optional) For keepalive seconds, enter how often the switch
•
sends keepalive messages. For retry-count, enter the number of
unanswered keepalive messages that the switch sends before
the connection is terminated. The default for each is 0.
(Optional) For reconnect time, enter the maximum time
•
interval that the switch waits before trying to reconnect to the
event gateway.
•
(Optional) For source ip-address, enter the source IP address
of this device.
