Configure alert settings

Specify how the system handles alerts, which are notifications of system and user events. You can have the alerts sent directly to your service provider and e-mailed to specific addresses. You can also have the system send alerts as traps to an SNMP destination. Configure SNMP destinations for alerts provides more details on setting up a destination to receive alerts over SNMP. View event logs and alerts provides details about viewing the current logs and alerts.

NOTE:To send e-mail alerts, you must configure an SMTP server on the system as explained in Manage SMTP server settings.
