Can I get notification when an AP goes down?

I want to get email notifications if an AP goes down or overloaded with traffic. Is this feature available on Unleashed?

I thought I found it under Admin & Services->Administration->Network Management->Alarm Notification but did not work for me when I tested it. I have checked enable email server, check all alarm notifications, checked send an email message when an alarm is triggered, and did test to email address working. But when I killed power (unplugged PoE cable) to AP I do not receive any notification. However, when I powered back the AP, I did got an "AP Has Joined" email notification.

Thanks. I have not used ZD. Can it also notify you if an AP's usage load goes over a certain load? Any monitoring and reports? I like to be able to identify an AP or client and it's usage over time in a day, week, or month. 

Hi Thomas,

Many thanks for confirming.  I've quickly configured a T300 with Unleashed 200.7.10.202.121 and I can confirm the email notifications appear to be working perfectly.

I get immediate notifications when I reboot the AP, when I disable a radio and when I connect/disconnect a favourite client.

I would recommend trying one of your APs in a test, after a factory reset, try configuring the email, check it works, then try uploading your config and see what happens.


HTH,
Darrel.

Can you try disconnecting (or unplugging power) to AP? I do not get any notification of AP going offline. 

Hi Thomas, 


Yes, I rebooted the AP and was sent an email alert.
