Getting notification when cluster member goes down

[ricky-li]

Just wondering if anyone knows how to configure CNA to send out a notification when a cluster member goes down? I've looked under monitor -> event notification, enabled 0 to 3 notication but didn't get the what i was looking for.

FYI I have a mixture of 3500xl series switches, 2924XLs and 3560 switches. I'm planning to switch to communities, but thats still going to take a bit of time and I need some for of notification in the interim.

All the devices for the topology of a community are derived from the CDP (Cisco Device Protocol) table of Cisco IOS. Therefore, the Topology view shows duplicate devices when CDP discovers duplicate devices.This happens for a single device when the command show cdp neighbor is entered.

Actually during another post, I figured out how to solve this particular issue. Basically if i put notification on the uplink port that the cluster member is on and it does pretty much what i was looking for.
