Alarm events

On this page you can set up different notification types for a number of events. This

is an important feature because of the nature of a timeserver: running unobserved in

the background. If an error or problem occurs, the timeserver is able to notify an

administrator by using a number of different notification types.

The LANTIME timeserver offers different ways of informing the administrator or a

responsible person about nine different events: EMAIL sends an e-mail message to a

specified e-mail account, SNMP-TRAP sends a SNMP trap to one or two SNMP trap

receivers, WINDOWS POPUP MESSAGE sends a winpopup message to one or two

different computers. DISPLAY shows the alarm message on a wall mount display

model VP100/NET, which is an optional accessory you can obtain for your

LANTIME. You also can use user defined scripts and the error relay out (see

appendix).

“Normal Operation” NTP and reference clock in normal operation

"NTP not sync" NTP is not synchronised to a reference time source

"NTP stopped" NTP has been stopped (mostly very large time offsets)

"Server boot" System has been restarted

"Receiver not responding" No contact to the internal GPS receiver

"Receiver not sync" Internal GPS clock is not synchronised to GPS time

"Antenna faulty" GPS antenna disconnected

"Antenna reconnect" GPS antenna reconnected

“Antenna short circuit” GPS detects antenna short circuit”

"Config changed" Configuration was changed by a user

„Leap second announced“ A leap second has been announced

“NTP client offset limit” Client management detects an error

Every event can use a combination of those four notification types, of course you can

disable notification for an event (by just disabling all notification types for this event).

The configuration of the four notification types can be changed in the upper section of

the page, you can control which notification is used for which event in the lower part

of the page.

E-mail messages

You can specify the e-mail address which is used as the senders address of the

notification e-mail (From: address), the e-mail address of the receiver (To: address)

and a SMTP smarthost, that is a mail server forwarding your mail to the receiver’s

mail server. If your LANTIME system is connected to the internet, it can deliver

those e-mails itself by directly connecting to the receivers mail server. Additional e-

mail addresses can be specified via the CC-recipients button.

These settings cannot be altered with the LC display buttons of the front panel. Please

note the following:

- The host name and domain name should be known to the SMTP

smarthost

- A valid nameserver entry is needed

- The domain part of the “From:” address has to be valid
