Hi Aaron,

 

 

Thanks for the input. Here are the steps I used to try and setup a custom snmp trap.

 

 

I add this to the user_alert.conf file

 

 

alert BIGIP_MCPD_MCPDERR_NODE_ADDRESS_MON_DOWN "Node (.*?) monitor status down." { snmptrap OID=".1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.4.0.12"

 

 

Then I run

 

 

logger -p local0.warning "Pool member 10.10.64.14:80 monitor status down."

 

 

Once I run that command I keep getting:

 

 

logger: Re-starting alretd

 

 

The restart message just keeps repeating itself over and over again
