Event Settings
On the Event Settings page, you may configure how administrators are notified of certain system, network, and
configuration events. Depending on the event, different options for automatic notification are available, as
shown above. Mail refers to sending an e-mail to a specified address. Trap refers to sending an SNMP Trap.
Dout is only available on the NPort 6450 and 6650, and refers to changing the status of the relay output (the
DOUT socket at the back of the NPort 6000) and of the alarm LED.
Cold start: This refers to starting the system from a power off state, or after upgrading your firmware
Warm start: This refers to restarting the NPort 6000 without turning the power off.
Network Event: These settings are only available on the NPort 6450 and 6650. Ethernet1 refers to the
built-in Ethernet port, and Ethernet2 and Ethernet3 refers to Ethernet ports that are added through optional
network modules. These settings configure the NPort to change the status of the relay output and alarm LED
if the specified connection goes down.
Console(web/text) login auth fail: This field refers to a failed attempt to log in to a password- protected
NPort 6000 console.
IP changed: With this option selected, the NPort 6000 will attempt to send an e-mail warning before it reboots
after an IP address change. However, the NPort 6000 will reboot with the new IP address regardless of whether
or not the e-mail transmission is successful.
Password changed: With this option selected, the NPort 6000 will attempt to send an e-mail warning before
it reboots with a new console password. If the NPort 6000 is unable to send an e-mail message to the mail
server within 15 seconds, it will still reboot without sending the e-mail.
