    Hi Pooja,

    I have similar problem and posted a question about it. I tried several solutions, and to call a script from user_alert.conf but it fails.

    Can you make a try by adding, to the /config/user_alert.conf, a new stanza like that:

    alert BIGIP_TEST "IP monitor status down" { 
    snmptrap OID=".1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.4.0.12"; 
    email toaddress="email address" 
    fromaddress="donotreply@statoil.com" 
    body="Service DOWN" 
}

    ?

    As for the "IP" in the first row specify the ip address for one specific node.

    Regards,

    Preslav

... of course if you have success you can multiply the stanza and just to change the IP address for every node you want.
