Remote Alert Notification - Polycom ReadiManagerLX100 Management Manual

Remote Alert Notification
A Remote Alert Notification system has been implemented for 24/7 troubleshooting. Due to the high mobility of a
system administrator's job, the remote alert notification system can inform the administrator of network errors for
endpoints. Two types of remote alert notifications can be created: Email and SNMP. SNMP is now accessible as a
remote alert.
Email Notification
connectivity problems, errors, warnings or systems not responding. The email can be forwarded to the administrator's
pager for instant notification.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
administrator the current status of the network. An SNMP Agent, a reporter of activity process, will set traps when
ViewStation networking mishaps occur. The SNMP agent will return information contained in a MIB (Management
Information Base).
Multiple remote alerts can now be created. A remote alert can be tailored to a system administrator's job function.
For example, Joe and Jane are part of the IT administration team. Both cover video support, however, Jane focuses
on desktop systems and Joe focuses on group systems and infrastructure. Jane can customize the remote alerts to
receive alerts specific to her core job function.
