Network monitoring with e-mails
If events occur, the device can automatically send an e-mail, e.g. to the service technician. The
e-mail contains the identification of the sending device, a description of the cause in plain text,
and a time stamp. This allows centralized network monitoring to be set up for networks with few
nodes based on an e-mail system.
Requirements for sending e-mails
● "E-mail" is activated for the relevant event in "System > Events > Configuration".
● The desired severity is configured under "System > Events > Severity level".
● At least one entry exists under "System > SMTP Client > Recipient" and the setting "Send"
is activated.
