Individual Device Alert Settings

The method used to deliver alerts can be altered on a per device basis. From the Device Details tab, select the Alert Templates button to display the current alert settings.

  1. To change the way an alert is handled, select the check box in the columns under the delivery method SNMP, Widget, or E-mail. To change method for all the alerts, you can select the check box in the column heading and it will apply the change across all alert types. E-mail cannot be selected as the only delivery method. You must select either Widget or SNMP first in order to also select E-mail.

  2. After making changes to the alert settings, select Apply to save the changes. The changes you made will apply only to this particular device.

If you are choosing email for any alerts, this method requires also selecting an email address from the drop-down list under Email Settings (located at the bottom of the menu). These addresses are populated from the Alert Templates menu accessible from the Open Tab menu.
