Notes:

a. To configure a remote alert recipient for IBM Director over Modem or IBM

Director over LAN, the remote alert recipient must be a server with the
Director Management Server installed.

b. The IBM Director over Modem option is supported in only IBM Director

versions 2.2.1, 3.1, and 3.1.1.

9. In the Number field, type either the phone number, IP address, or host name

at which to reach the recipient. Type a phone number if you are using one of
the following notification methods:

v

Numeric pager (follow the phone number with a comma and the personal
identification number [PIN])

v

Alphanumeric pager

v

IBM Director over Modem

v

SNMP over PPP

v

E-mail over PPP

Type an IP address or host name if you are using the IBM Director over LAN
method.

10. If you chose alphanumeric pager as the notification method, in the PIN field,

enter the PIN.

11. If you selected the E-mail over LAN or E-mail over PPP notification methods, in

the E-Mail address field, type the e-mail address of the recipient.

Note: For the E-mail over LAN and E-mail over PPP notification methods to

work properly, configure the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
options on the Network Protocols page. For more information about
SMTP options, see “Configuring SMTP” on page 41.

12. If you selected the E-mail over PPP or SNMP over PPP notification methods,

at the PPP login ID field, type the PPP login ID needed to log in to the dial-up
service account of the recipient. The PPP login ID consists of your service,
your account name, and your user ID all separated by periods
(service.account.userid).

For example, to log in to the IBM Global Network

®

IP Remote Access Service

Provider, the PPP login ID should contain information in the following format:
secureip.X.Y, where secureip is your service and X is your account name, and
Y is your user ID.

Notes:

a. For the SNMP over LAN and SNMP over PPP notification methods to work

properly, configure the SNMP options on the Network Protocols page. For
information about SNMP, see “Configuring SNMP” on page 38.

b. For an xSeries 330 server: SNMP over LAN and IBM Director over LAN

alerts are always forwarded because the ASM processor does not have
LAN connectivity.

13. If you selected the E-mail over PPP or SNMP over PPP notification method, at

the PPP password field, type the PPP password that accompanies the login
ID.

14. Click Save to save your remote alert recipient profile. Repeat step 3 on
