Well you can make the 'alert' do something :

"alert  A  program which sends a message when invoked by the
scheduler.  The scheduler calls upon an alert when it detects a
failure from a monitor. An alert program accepts a set of command-line
arguments from the scheduler, in addition to data via standard input."

RE: Can Mon change running configuration of PIX/ASA?

I didn't want to re-invent the wheel. If someone already had an alert to
reconfigure a router or firewall, I was going to adapt it. I didn't see
anything like this in the included alerts, but I thought someone may have
implemented this in the past.
