The Digi CM can be configured for system alerts and notifications. It sends email messages when the number of system log messages reaches a certain value or when an alarm message is detected in the serial port data. The Digi CM uses SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) for sending the notifications. To use SMTP, the system administrator must configure a valid SMTP server for sending the emails. The Digi CM supports three types of SMTP servers: SMTP server without authentication, SMTP server with authentication, and POP before SMTP.
The Digi CM also supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), a protocol used to manage a network and monitor devices on a network. System and port alerts can also be sent using SNMP traps. The Digi CM supports both versions 1 and 2 of the SNMP protocol. The main function of SNMP on the Digi CM is to allow a system administrator to query remote devices for information.
