A little late to this party, but one thing I noticed while running through this. In the applet, you need to spell the interface exactly as it appears when you do a show interface “…”. I had a policy monitoring fastethernet0/0 and it wouldn’t run, it needed to be FastEthernet0/0, capitalization counts!

Youre are welcome!

one thing that I forgot – the service-policy will remain forever untill one manually delete it. Is there any way to remove it automatically or we should consider writing another applet that will measure interface load?

awesome post, Keith!

two things to note:

0. it will not work with NBAR

class-map ICMP
match prot icmp

*Dec 18 17:05:27.323: %HA_EM-6-LOG: DETECT : DEBUG(cli_lib) : : OUT : Unsupported protocol in ‘match protocol’

1. it doesn’t require enable password/secret, even it is set:

r2(config)#enable sec cisco

*Dec 18 17:05:26.471: %HA_EM-6-LOG: DETECT : DEBUG(cli_lib) : : IN : r2>enable
*Dec 18 17:05:26.635: %HA_EM-6-LOG: DETECT : DEBUG(cli_lib) : : OUT : r2#

Awesome post Keith. EEM is a very handy tool for “automation” on cisco routers.
