Adding a recipient

Add a recipient to define the contact information for sending alarm notification messages. The new recipient will be available in the notification rule wizard when adding or editing a rule.

To add a recipient:

1. In Notification Manager, select the Recipients tab, and then click Add Recipient to open the Add Recipient window.

   TIP: Click Duplicate or use the Duplicate Recipient command, in the right-click context menu, to duplicate an existing recipient.

2. Enter the following information:
   • Recipient Name: The name that is displayed in the recipients table and the Available Recipients list.
   • Email Address: The email address used to send email notifications to this recipient.
   • SMS Phone Number: The phone number used to send text notifications to this recipient.
   • SNMP Server Name: The server name used to send SNMP message notifications to this recipient.

   TIP: Click Test to send a test email, test SMS message, or test SNMP message to confirm that your entries are correct and valid.

   NOTE: The notification settings for email, SMS, and SNMP must be configured correctly before you can send test messages. See Editing notification settings for details.

3. Click OK.

NOTE: You can also add recipients though the notification rule wizard when adding or editing a rule. Use the same process as described in steps 2-3 above.
