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 sends alerts to the administrator’s email informing of endpoints requesting help, systems reporting 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) is a network monitoring and control protocol to inform the 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).

Summarizes details of the alert

Multiple remote alerts can now be created in Global Management System. 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.
