It is optional to configure fault management for the SSL VPN service. If you do configure fault management, you can set filters to determine the types of events that you are notified about. For example, you can receive notifications about faults related to the SSL VPN service, or you can receive notifications about faults related to the IP Office system.
When you configure fault management, you must define alarm destinations where system faults are reported. You can configure the following destinations for alarm reporting:
SNMP traps reported on a local LAN, or on a remote server
email notifications reported to an SMTP server on a local LAN, or a remote SMTP server
syslog entries reported on a local LAN, or on a remote server
The alarm destinations that you can configure depend on the operating mode that you use. The following table lists the alarm destinations supported in each mode.
