Web Interface for the Overall NPort 5000 Series
The Event Type parameters are used to configure which events will generate an automatic warning from the
NPort device server, and how that warning will be issued. For each listed event, certain automatic warning
options are available. If Mail is selected, an e-mail will be sent. If Trap is selected, an SNMP trap will be
sent. The
Relay Output
option is available for NPort IA5000/IA5000A series.
Cold start
Refers to starting the system from power off (contrast this with warm start). When performing a cold start,
the NPort will automatically issue an auto warning message by e-mail, or send an SNMP trap after booting
up.
Warm start
A warm start refers to restarting the computer without turning the power off. When performing a warm
start, the NPort will automatically send an e-mail, or send an SNMP trap after rebooting.
Authentication failure
An authentication failure event is triggered when the user inputs an incorrect password from the Console or
Administrator. When an authentication failure occurs, the NPort will immediately send an e-mail or SNMP
trap.
IP address changed
An IP address changed event is triggered when the user has changed the NPort’s IP address. When the IP
address changes, the NPort will send an e-mail with the new IP address before the NPort reboots. If the
NPort is unable to send an e-mail message to the mail server within 15 seconds, the NPort will reboot
anyway, and abort the e-mail auto warning.
