Notifications

GigaVUE-FM provides powerful email notification capabilities, automatically sending emails to specified addresses when any of a wide variety of events take place on the node. Gigamon strongly recommends that you configure this feature so you have immediate visibility of events affecting node health.

Some of these events are detected by GigaVUE H Series, TA Series, and G Series nodes, and the notifications are forwarded to the Fabric Manager. For a node to be able to send notifications to the Fabric Manager, the node’s SNMP notifications must be configured with the Fabric Manager’s IP address. For information about adding a destination for SNMP notifications, refer to Configuring SNMP Notifications in GigaVUE-OS CLI Reference Guide.

To configure automatic email notification, you will need to configure the email notification settings, the events about which to be notified, and the recipient or recipients for the notifications. You can add an email prefix to the emails generated from GigaVUE-FM.

Note:  You can configure batch notification of events, in which the events are consolidated and notified within a pre-configured time interval. A single email is sent for all the events generated in that interval. You can also add a prefix to the emails generated from GigaVUE‑FM.
