Abstract

A network administration system for triggering commands in response to receipt of error logs, comprising a user interface for programming execution sets of commands in association with predetermined error logs, and means for receiving error logs and for each of the predetermined ones of the error logs triggering execution of the commands in the execution sets.

Claims

1. A network administration system for triggering commands in response to receipt of error logs from network devices and applications, comprising:

a user interface for programming execution sets of said commands in association with predetermined ones of said error logs; and

program means for receiving said error logs and for each of said predetermined ones of said error logs triggering execution of said commands in said execution sets.

2. The network administration system of claim 1, wherein said user interface provides ordered execution of multiple commands associated with said error logs in accordance with user preference.

3. The network administration system of claim 1, wherein said user interface and program means are implemented within one of said network devices.

4. A method of triggering commands in response to receipt of error logs from network devices and applications, comprising the steps of:

programming execution sets of said commands in association with predetermined ones of said error logs; and

receiving said error logs and for each of said predetermined ones of said error logs triggering execution of said commands in said execution sets.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein said steps of receiving said error logs and for each of said predetermined ones of said error logs triggering execution of said commands in said execution sets further comprise the steps of:

a) detecting an execution set associated with a received error log; and

b) executing each successive command in said execution set.
