Alert Notifications Configuration

SystemGuard allows you to set up notifications for various system events using different communication channels like email, Slack, Discord, and Telegram. This helps ensure you are promptly notified when alerts are triggered.

Configuring Email Notifications

  1. Navigate to the SMTP Configurations option under the Settings section in the SystemGuard dashboard.
  2. Enter the following SMTP details:
    • SMTP Server: Provide the address of the SMTP server (e.g., smtp.gmail.com).
    • SMTP Port: Specify the port number for the SMTP server (e.g., 587 for TLS).
    • SMTP Username: Enter the username for authenticating with the SMTP server.
    • SMTP Password: Provide the password for the specified SMTP username.
    • Sender Email: Specify the email address from which the alerts will be sent.
  3. After entering the details, save the configuration.
  4. You can now receive email notifications when a system alert is triggered.
