 Similarly you can specify the specific Subject Line that will be sent with the email. Generally the email subject will
contain a truncated version of the alert notification message (which is contained in full in the body of the email).
However some SMS gateway service providers require blank subjects or require specific authentication headers
to be included in the subject line
 Click Apply Settings to activate SMS-SMTP connection.
SMS via Cellular Modem
To use an attached or internal cellular modem for SMS the Administrator must enable SMS:
 Select Cellular Modem In the SMS Settings field
 Check Receive Messages to enable incoming SMS messages to be received. A custom script will be called on
receipt of incoming SMS messages
 You may need to enter the phone number of the carrier’s SMS Message Centre (only if advised by your carrier or Support)
 Click Apply Settings to activate SMS-SMTP connection
Note The option to directly send SMS alerts via the cellular modem was included in the Management GUI in V3.4.
Advanced console servers have had the gateway software (SMS Server Tools 3) embedded since V3.1 however
you this could only be accessed from the command line to send SMS messages (refer online FAQ).
7.5.3 Send SNMP Trap alerts
The Administrator can configure the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent that resides on the console
server to send SNMP trap alerts to an NMS management application:
 Select Alerts & Logging: SNMP
 Select Primary SNMP Manager tab. The Primary and Secondary SNMP Manager tabs are used to configure where
and how outgoing SNMP alerts and notifications are sent. If you require your console server to send alerts via SNMP
then, at a minimum, a Primary SNMP Manager must be configured. Optionally, a second SNMP Network Manager
with its own SNMP settings can be specified on the Secondary SNMP Manager tab
Note: All console servers can also be configured to provide status information on demand using snmpd. This SNMP
agent is configured using the SNMP Service Detail on Alerts & Logging: SNMP - as described in Chapter 15
