A network engineer runs the following command to troubleshoot an EEM issue:
R1# show event manager detector
Detector Name : syslog Detector Type : system Detector State : enabled Detector Queue Size : 100 Detector Queue Max : 200 Detector Events Triggered : 15
Detector Name : timer Detector Type : system Detector State : enabled Detector Queue Size : 0 Detector Queue Max : 50 Detector Events Triggered : 3
What does this output indicate?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Both syslog and timer detectors are enabled. The syslog detector has triggered 15 events and has 100 events in its queue.
The output shows the status of EEM detectors. Detectors are components that monitor for specific events (syslog, timer, etc.). The output shows each detector's state (enabled/disabled), queue size and maximum, and the number of events triggered. Queue size indicates pending events waiting to be processed.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Both syslog and timer detectors are enabled. The syslog detector has triggered 15 events and has 100 events in its queue.
Why this is correct
Correct. The syslog detector is enabled, has triggered 15 events, and has a queue size of 100 (pending events).
- ✗
The syslog detector is disabled and needs to be enabled for EEM to work.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect. The detector state is 'enabled'.
- ✗
The timer detector has triggered 3 events and has 50 events in its queue.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect. The timer detector has a queue size of 0, not 50. The queue max is 50.
- ✗
The queue size of 100 for syslog indicates that 100 events have been dropped.
Why it's wrong here
Incorrect. Queue size indicates pending events, not dropped events. Dropped events would be indicated by a separate counter or if queue size exceeds queue max.
