To set up LAN alerts
To set up the server to send alerts over the LAN:
1Configure the remote system to receive alerts.
For more information, see the documentation for ASMe.
2From the SSU Main window, choose Platform Event Manager (PEM).
3In the PEM window, click Configure LAN.
4Select the Enable LAN Alerts check box.
5(Optional) In the SNMP Community String box, enter a string for the community field in the Header section of the SNMP trap sent for an alert. The string must be from 5 to 16 characters. The default string is public.
6In the IP Setup box, choose either:
• | DHCP | The IP address for the server is automatically |
|
| assigned by the DHCP (dynamic host control |
|
| protocol) server on the network. The Host, |
|
| Gateway, and Subnet Mask boxes in the dialog are |
|
| ignored. |
• | Static | Assign the IP address for the server using the Host, |
|
| Gateway, and Subnet Mask boxes in the dialog. |
7If you chose Static IP Setup in the previous step, fill in the IP addressing boxes:
• | Host IP | The IP address of this server. |
| Address |
|
• | Gateway IP | The IP address of the router for this server. |
| Address |
|
• | Subnet | The IP address for the server's subnet. The |
| Mask | server uses this to decide if the alert destination |
|
| is on the same subnet. |
8In the Alert IP Address box, fill in the IP address of the system you want to receive alerts from this server.
