Remote System Monitoring; E-Mail Notification - ATTO Technology iPBridge 2600 Installation And Operation Manual

You may set up the iPBridge to send notifications when certain events occur.
Use the Remote Management page of the
ExpressNAV interface to send information about
the operation of the iPBridge.
CLI commands may be used to set up remote
monitoring. Refer to Diagnostic commands
page 39.

E-mail notification

E-mail notification using SMTP (Simple Mail
Transfer Protocol) allows the iPBridge to send an
E-mail message to you, a network administrator
or other users when certain events occur:
• critical and warning temperature conditions
• critical and warning voltage conditions
• power is on
The severity level can be all, warning, critical
or none.
• All means warnings, critical events and
informational messages are sent.
• Critical means only critical event notifications
are sent.
• Warning means only warnings and critical event
notifications are sent.
• None means no notification is sent.
When an event occurs that warrants E-mail
notification, the iPBridge scans each of its ports
until the E-mail is sent successfully. Each attempt
takes one minute. The E-mail function only sends
messages; it cannot respond to a rejection by a
server for an invalid address.
Each E-mail is time stamped when it leaves as
part of the SMTP header information.
1 If you are not already in the ExpressNAV GUI,
