About Alerts and Notifications
The Digi Passport unit 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 Passport unit 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 Passport unit supports three types of SMTP servers: SMTP server
without authentication, SMTP server with authentication, and POP before
SMTP.
The Digi Passport unit 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 Passport unit supports versions 1, 2, and 3 of the SNMP protocol. The
main function of SNMP on the Digi Passport unit is to allow a system
administrator to query remote devices for information.
