What are System
Events?
System events are events that occur on the Webcache which can be
reported to you. They range in significance from minor, such as Upgrade
Started, to major, such as System Failure. You can configure the
Webcache to automatically inform you about these events using email
notification and SNMP traps. Such notification allows you to respond
more quickly to Webcache events and helps save you valuable time and
effort. It is an important element in the remote management of the
Webcache.
Email Notification You can configure the Webcache to automatically send emails to
specified email accounts when certain significant system events occur.
The emails are generated internally within the Webcache in a fixed
format that is also used by 3com Network Supervisor. The emails can be
sent to as many accounts as you like.

To configure Email Notification using the Web interface:
1 Log in to the Web interface.
2 Click Device View on the Toolbar.
3 Select System -> Management -> Events -> Email Notification in the
Navigation Tree. The Email Notification screen is displayed.
