Configure System Alerts - NETGEAR ReadyDATA 5200 Software Manual

Configure System Alerts

If you provide an email address for alert notices, system events such as disk errors and
failures, changes in network connectivity, power supply failures, fan speed irregularities and
fan failures, and CPU and enclosure temperature violations generate email alert messages.
The ReadyDATA 5200 divides system events into two categories, mandatory and optional.
Mandatory events always generate email alert messages. You can control which optional
system events generate email alert messages.
Email Alert Contacts
To receive an email message alerting you if a system event that requires your attention
occurs, provide an email address for alert messages. You can use an email address that is
accessible from a smartphone to help you monitor the ReadyDATA 5200 when you are away
from it.
