Using Nonstandard System Log Messages to Trigger Event Policies

Some of the system log messages that you can reference in an event policy are not listed in the output of the set event-options policy policy-name events ? command. These system log messages have an event ID and a message attribute. Event IDs are based on the origin of the message, as shown in Table 19.

Table 19: Event ID by System Log Message Origin

Event IDs	Origin
SYSTEM	Messages from UNIX domain sockets
KERNEL	Messages from the kernel
PIC	Messages from PICs
PFE	Messages from the Packet Forwarding Engine
LCC	On a TX Matrix router, messages from as line-card chassis (LCC)
SCC	On a TX Matrix router, messages from a switch-card chassis (SCC)

To base your event policy on the event types shown in Table 19, include the events event-id statement and the attributes-match statement with the event-id.message matches "message" attribute at the [edit event-options policy policy-name] hierarchy level:

[edit event-options policy policy-name]events event-id;attributes-match {event-id.message matches "message";}
