We have used a Senquick Alert-Plus appliance at one client, which monitors the 
core infrastructure, internet links, then sends at SMS alert accordingly.

Not cheap if you only need to monitor 1 or 2 devices.

Subject: [AusNOG] Dry Contact Alerting on a Cisco Router

Hello All,

I'm working through an interesting scenario at the moment, whereby I need to 
provide an alert via Dry Contact that the 3G/4G interface on a Cisco router has 
come up (and vice versa, for the contact to clear when the 3G is down).

I know Cisco used to have the AIC module for this purpose (waaay back in the 
day) but it's EOL since 2005 and has no listed replacement. I'm curious as to 
if there's an embedded device out there that can poll the Cisco via SNMP and 
change the status of a contact based on the result returned from the SNMP 
query. Moxa do some nice device servers that have a good API, but that'd need 
an EEM script on the router to trigger the interface change, something I'm 
reluctant to do.

Has anyone implemented something similar in their own environments - and if so, 
how did you do it?

Replies off-list are fine, and I'll provide an on-list summary if there's 
interest.

Regards,
-Brad.
