Send all alarmsto the Remote Management server: enables or disablessending of alarm
notificationsto aserver that handlesremote management of devices, such as Remote
Manager.
Enabling this setting sendsall alarm notifications to Remote Manager. Enable thisoption if the
Digi device ismanaged by a remote management server, such asRemote Manager. Enabling
thisoption isuseful because it allowsall alarmsto be monitored from one location. Enabling
thisoption also allows Digi devices to send alarms to clientsthat would otherwise be
unreachable from the Digi device, either because the Digi device isbehind a firewall or not on
the same network as the alarm destination.
When you disable this setting alarm notifications are not sent to Remote Manager. Disable this
setting if devices are not managed by a Remote Manager server or if alarms aresent from the
device. For example, an SNMPtrap destination islocal to the device, not Remote Manager.
