Profile name—A string that uniquely identifies each user-defined destination profile. The profile
name is limited to 31 characters and is not case-sensitive. You cannot use all as a profile name.
Transport method—The transport mechanism, either e-mail or HTTP (including HTTPS), for
delivery of alerts.
– For user-defined destination profiles, e-mail is the default, and you can enable one or both
transport mechanisms. If you disable both methods, e-mail is enabled.
For the predefined Cisco TAC profile, you can enable either transport mechanism, but not both.
–
Destination address—The actual address related to the transport method to which the alert should
be sent.
Message formatting—The message format used for sending the alert. The format options for a
user-defined destination profile are long-text, short-text, or XML. The default is XML. For the
predefined Cisco TAC profile, only XML is allowed. If you use the Cisco Smart Call Home service,
the destination profile must use the XML message format.
Message size—The maximum destination message size. The valid range is 50 to 3,145,728 bytes
and the default is 3,145,728 bytes.

Backup e-mail servers can be defined by repeating the mail-server command using different priority
numbers.
The mail-server priority number parameter can be configured from 1 to 100. The server with the
