To Configure the Network Settings
●
From the Configure submenu, click the Network tab.
The Network configuration screen appears (see

enable or disable DHCP and set DNS. If you disable DHCP, you must manually

Configuring E-mail Notification
The E-mail Notification screen enables you to configure the e-mail recipients for any
ELOM generated events. The system allows you to designate up to 10 recipients. e-
mail notification is used in conjunction with Platform Event Filters (PEF). PEFs are
event traps that allow you to associate an action, or a set of actions, with the
occurrence of a specific event. One such action is mail notification. The Send Mail
action is enabled in the Platform Event Filter screen and configured in the E-mail
Notification screen.

Configuring Platform Event Filters
The Platform Event Filter option allows you to configure actions for system
generated events. A system generated event is an alert that occurs when a threshold
for a system sensor is reached. For example, the system uses the sensors to monitor
various critical components. The components are most effective when operating
within a specific range. The limits of that range are defined as thresholds. All
components, such as fans, have an upper and lower critical threshold (see
). When either critical threshold is crossed the system
generates an alert. For example a fan failure would cause an alert for the lower
critical threshold. You can configure an event filter to trigger off the alert and
perform one or several actions. These actions include:
