Table 1 Embedded Event Manager Features 

Release	Feature Name	Feature Description	Where Documented
Cisco IOS Release 12.0S
12.0(26)S	Embedded Event Manager 1.0	EEM 1.0 introduced Embedded Event Manager applet creation with the SNMP and Syslog event detectors. EEM 1.0 also introduced the following actions: generating prioritized syslog messages, generating a CNS event for upstream processing by Cisco CNS devices, reloading the Cisco IOS software, and switching to a secondary processor in a fully redundant hardware configuration.	Embedded Event Manager Overview Writing Embedded Event Manager Policies Using the Cisco IOS CLI
Cisco IOS Release 12.2S
12.2(25)S	Embedded Event Manager 2.0	EEM 2.0 introduced the application-specific event detector, the counter event detector, the interface counter event detector, the timer event detector, and the IOSWDSysMon event detector. New actions include setting and modifying a named counter, publishing an application-specific event, and generating an SNMP trap. The ability to define environment variables and to run a sample EEM policy (included in the software) written using Tcl was introduced.
