Defining Email Alerts (SMTP)
The NAS server lets you automatically notify individuals via email if there is a
hardware failure or a critical system alert.
Note
The information on this screen is optional. Blank fields do not
affect the functionality of the device. In the event of a hardware
failure or system alert, messages are sent through the network
management tool or they are logged in the system log.
To set up automatic notification:
1
In the Command View NAS web interface, click the Configuration tab.
2
Navigate down the tree to Alerts/Logging, then select SMTP Email Alerts.
3
Select Actions > Edit SMTP Values.
4
Enter the name of the email server in the SMTP Server Name field. The
email server must be an IP address or a fully qualified name (such as
alpha.corp.com). You must specify an email server if you want to define
one or more email recipients.
5
Click Add and enter the email address that should receive alerts. Click OK.
Click Add for any additional email addresses you want to add. You can
also:
—
Edit an existing email by selecting it from the table and clicking Edit.
—
Delete an entry by selecting it from the table and clicking Delete.
6
Click OK.
7
You can send a test email to make sure your settings are correct by
selecting the recipient from the list and clicking Actions > Send test email
to selected address.
See Appendix B, SNMP Trap Definitions for a list of the traps sent by the NAS
server.
