NSM 5.x/6.0 SMS Server system
Figure 6 - SMS alert flow via the NSM 5.x/6.0 SMS server
The NSM 5.x/6.0 SMS Server can send SMS (text) messages through
a TAP/UCP compliant SMSC (Short Message Service Center)
NOTE: The Sender ID is the number of the sending entity. Leave this
empty if you want your ID to be withheld when sending a message.
Requirements
This NSM 5.x/6.0 SMS messaging method requires a normal Hayes-
compatible modem connected to the server on which the GFI Network
Monitor Engine is running. When a check fails, GFI Network Server
Monitor uses the modem to dial in to the SMSC provider and deliver
the actual SMS message(s); most countries have one or more SMSC
service providers.
