The GFI FAXmaker SMS Service allows GFI Network Server Monitor
to send SMS messages through GFI FAXmaker, market-leading fax
server software that allows you to send and receive faxes via your
email infrastructure. GFI FAXmaker is also an SMS gateway which
allows you to send SMS messages through:
• A GSM phone / modem connected to your fax server.
Or
• Web-based SMS service providers.

Whenever an event triggers an SMS alert, GFI Network Server
Monitor sends a “template” email (via SMTP) to the fax server (i.e.,
GFI FAXmaker). This template email contains all the SMS alert details
including the SMS text message and the recipient’s number. GFI
FAXmaker then converts this email to SMS and sends it to the
intended recipient.
