Port keywords work as a filter. If a keyword is detected, message are sent to:
Event Log
SNMP
SMTP
Syslog
This feature is useful for notifying administrators if a particular event occurs on a port. For keywords to trigger when no users are connected to a port, "Always Active" must be selected in the port settings. (See Configure DSAM Serial Ports.) You can also view the list of existing port keywords on the serial port settings page.
To configure serial port keywords:
Click Device Settings > Serial Port Keywords. The Serial Port Keyword List page opens.
Click New. The New Keyword Settings page opens.
Enter a keyword in the Keyword field, then select the ports you want to associate with that keyword. For all ports, select the top checkbox.
Click Add Keyword. The Serial Port Keyword List appears.
To edit or delete a keyword, select it to highlight blue, then click Edit or Delete.
