7.5.2Send SMS alerts

With any model console server you can use email-to-SMS services to send SMS alert notifications to mobile devices. Almost all mobile phone carriers provide an SMS gateway service that forwards email to mobile phones on their networks. There’s also a wide selection of SMS gateway aggregators who provide email to SMS forwarding to phones on any carriers. Alternately if your console server has an embedded or externally attached cellular modem you will be given the option to send the SMS directly over the carrier connection.

In the SMTP Settings field in the Alerts & Logging: SMTP &SMS menu select SMS Gateway. An SMS via Email Gateway field will appear

Enter the IP address of the outgoing mail Server SMS gateway
