4.4.4 Management
This page provides the iServer’s email, SNMP and alarm settings. SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol) is the protocol used by network management systems to
communicate with network devices that respond to SNMP connections for the purpose of
problem detections and corrections.
If SNMP and/or SMTP features are desired, please make sure iServer’s network setting
as well as SNMP trap server and SMTP mail server are setup properly. Failure to do so
may cause iServer to be unresponsive while waiting for these servers to reply back.
Fields are described below.
