Alert groups allow you to select the set of Smart Call Home alerts that you want to send to a predefined or
custom destination profile. The device sends Smart Call Home alerts to email destinations in a destination
profile only if that Smart Call Home alert belongs to one of the alert groups associated with that destination
profile and if the alert has a Smart Call Home message severity at or above the message severity set in the
destination profile.
The following table lists the supported alert groups and the default CLI command output included in Smart
