RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Adding traceroute output to Alert Emails

[Paul Jasa]

Thanks, Anthony,  but what I was looking for was a way to have the traceroute output INCLUDED on the WUG email, not on a separate email.   I can do traceroute emails using Perl on a separate box, but what we need is an all-inclusive email, so to speak.  Can Rebol add the traceroute output to the WUG email? pj ====================================== Paul Jasa Network Engineer ====================================== -----Original Message----- From: Anthony Franklin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Anthony Franklin Sent: Wednesday, December 03, 2003 05:44 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Adding traceroute output to Alert Emails Have you heard of Rebol?   It's a very powerful, yet small programming, ios, and scripting language, < 700kB, that will allow this.   Once you get it, I can send you a sample script.  The script will be run by using a program alert.    Also, you may be able to do it yourself with a little hint:  Pipe the traceroute output to a file.  Rebol then can read the file and send the contents to an email address in text form or attachment.  It is easier to send the text.  You do not need an outside smtp server, Rebol has its own. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Jasa [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wed 12/3/2003 10:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Adding traceroute output to Alert Emails Hi folks!  I was curious if anyone had tried to add output from other scripts onto the Alert Emails.   We'd like to be able to execute a traceroute when a device is down (to troubleshoot routing issues), and have the output be pasted onto the Alert Email that WU sends out.   I'm running WUG 8. Has anyone had any success in doing this?  How can I go about it?  is it possible?    Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction.   Paul ====================================== Paul Jasa Network Engineer ======================================   The information contained in this e-mail and any attached documents may be privileged, confidential and protected from disclosure.
