Verifying Notification Settings

The following settings should ne verified prior to putting them into effect:

  • SNMP trap configuration
  • Syslog profile configuration
  • Email profile configuration

Verification is manifested in the UI in several places. In the Notifications tab under Operations, notice the question mark icon to which the red arrow points in the below screenshot.
