Field Description
Name The name automatically assigned to the profile. This profile can not be
changed or deleted, but the settings can be modified.
Level The severity level of the event (Alarm, Critical, Warning, None). The level
of events processed by the profile to produce emails that will be sent to the
email addresses listed in the profile.
Format The format used to compile and email a message in response to an
incoming event that is processed by the profile. Formats allowed include:
• ShortText includes the minimum amount of detail required to describe
the event and identify the switch sending the message; it is the
intended format for reading on mobile electronic devices.
• FullText includes the same information as ShortText and provides
additional information to identify switch location and contact
information for switch administrators; it is the intended format for
reading via standard email clients.
• The Tsc1 format is similar to the ShortText format but is compiled to
simplify machine processing of email messages.
Max Size
(650—2,000,000)
The maximum number of bytes allowed for an email message compiled
for the profile. Most email messages are relatively small, under 2KB.
However, emails that are produced by a capture operation can be as
large as 1MB due to the inclusion of file attachments.
Email Subject The subject line in the email to be sent. It is the string that is appended to
the string generated by CallHome for the email message subject line.
Enable Capture Enables or disables the capture operations for the profile. Only the Tech
Support Center profile is allowed to define and execute capture
operations on the switch.

executed on the switch. Only the Tech Support Center profile is allowed to
define and execute capture operations on the switch. The default is 02:30.

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday–when the capture operation
will be executed on the switch. The default is Monday.
Interval (1—26 weeks) The number of weeks that must pass between executions of the capture
operation. The default is 1.

profile. A maximum of 10 addresses is allowed and displayed in the
