Using the Predefined CiscoTAC-1 Destination Profile The CiscoTAC-1 profile is automatically configured in the Call Home feature for your use with the Cisco Smart Call Home service. This profile includes certain information, such as the destination e-mail address and HTTPS URL, and default alert groups for communication with the Smart Call Home service. Some of these attributes, such as the destination e-mail address, HTTPS URL, and message format cannot be modified. You can use either email or http transport to communicate with the Smart Call Home service backend server. By default, the CiscoTAC-1 profile is inactive and uses email as the default transport method. To use email transport, you only need to enable the profile. However, to use this profile with the Cisco Smart Call Home service secure server (via HTTPS), you not only must enable the profile, but you must also change the transport method to HTTP as shown in the following example: Router# configure terminal Router(config)# call-home Router(config-call-home)# profile CiscoTAC-1 Router(cfg-call-home-profile)# destination transport-method http Router(cfg-call-home-profile)# active For more information about additional requirements for Configuring the Smart Call Home service, see the "How To Configure Call Home to Support the Smart Call Home Service" section on page 27. Verifying the Call Home Profile Configuration To verify the profile configuration for Call Home, use the show call-home profile command. See the "Displaying Call Home Configuration Information" section on page 34 for more information and examples.

Configuring Call Home
How to Configure Call Home
17
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers Software Configuration Guide
DETAILED STEPS
Using the Predefined CiscoTAC-1 Destination Profile
The CiscoTAC-1 profile is automatically configured in the Call Home feature for your use with the Cisco
Smart Call Home service. This profile includes certain information, such as the destination e-mail
address and HTTPS URL, and default alert groups for communication with the Smart Call Home service.
Some of these attributes, such as the destination e-mail address, HTTPS URL, and message format
cannot be modified.
You can use either email or http transport to communicate with the Smart Call Home service backend
server. By default, the CiscoTAC-1 profile is inactive and uses email as the default transport method. To
use email transport, you only need to enable the profile. However, to use this profile with the Cisco Smart
Call Home service secure server (via HTTPS), you not only must enable the profile, but you must also
change the transport method to HTTP as shown in the following example:
Router#
configure terminal
Router(config)#
call-home
Router(config-call-home)#
profile CiscoTAC-1
Router(cfg-call-home-profile)#
destination transport-method http
Router(cfg-call-home-profile)#
active
For more information about additional requirements for Configuring the Smart Call Home service, see
the
“How To Configure Call Home to Support the Smart Call Home Service” section on page 27
.
Verifying the Call Home Profile Configuration
To verify the profile configuration for Call Home, use the
show call-home profile
command. See the
“Displaying Call Home Configuration Information” section on page 34
for more information and
examples.
Subscribing to Alert Groups
An alert group is a predefined subset of Call Home alerts supported in all routers. Different types of Call
Home alerts are grouped into different alert groups depending on their type. The following alert groups
are available on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers:
Command or Action
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Example:
Router#
configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
call-home
Example:
Router(config)#
call-home
Enters call home configuration mode.
Step 3
rename profile
source-profile target-profile
Example:
Router(cfg-call-home)#
rename profile2
testprofile
Renames an existing source file, where:
source-profile
—Specifies the existing name of the
profile.
target-profile
—Specifies a new name for the existing
profile.
