In the
SMTP SMS Server
field in the
Alerts & Logging: SMTP &SMS
menu, enter the IP address
of the outgoing mail
Server.
You may enter a
Sender
email address which will appear as the “
from”
address in all email
notifications sent from this Console Server. Some SMS gateway service providers only forward
email to SMS when the email has been received from authorized senders. So you may need to
assign a specific authorized email address for the Console Server.
You may also enter a
Username
and
Password
as some SMS gateway service providers use
SMTP servers which require authentication.
Similarly, you can specify the
Subject Line
that will be sent with the email. Generally the email
subject will contain a truncated version of the alert notification message (which is contained in
full in the body of the email). However, some SMS gateway service providers require blank
subjects or require specific authentication headers to be included in the subject line.

7.1.3 SNMP Alerts
The Administrator can configure the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent that resides
on the Console Server to send Alerts to an SNMP management application:
Select
Alerts & Logging: SNMP.
Enter the SNMP transport protocol. SNMP is generally a
UDP
-based protocol though it
infrequently uses
TCP
instead.
Enter the IP address of the
SNMP Manager
and the Port to be used for connecting.
Select the version being used. The Console Server SNMP agent supports SNMP v1, v2 and v3.
Enter the
Community
name for SNMP v1 or 2c.
To configure for SNMP v3 you will need to enter an ID and authentication password and contact
information for the local Administrator (in the
Security Name
).
Click
Apply
to activate SNMP.
