What is SMS and email alert?

QNAP NAS supports SMS and email alert to inform the users about system error or warning. SMS is the abbreviation of Short Message Service which is known for the mobile text message service. By subscribing with the SMS service providers you are able to setup QNAP NAS to send SMS to the designated mobile phones in the event of system warning or errors. This demostration will show you how to setup both the SMS and Email alert notification on your QNAP NAS. See below for the usage diagram. *Note: TS-109/ 209/ 409/ 409U series only support e-mail alert.

Sign up and setup a SMS service account

In this demostration I will use Clickatell simply because it offers 10 free SMS after the registration. Now go to Clickatell’s website http://www.clickatell.com/login.php under the ‘New Customers‘ setion select ‘Clickatell Central (API)‘

Fill out your personal information then click on ‘Continue‘.

Upon successful registration you should receive an email containing the account activation link. You may now check your inbox to complete your account activation. By following the activation link you will be brought to the login screen as the image show below. Type in the password and click on ‘Login‘ to proceed.

Next you will need to verify your mobile number by entering an activation code sent by Clickatell after you enter your mobile phone number and click on ‘SEND ACTIVATION CODE‘

While still logged in with Clickatell, go to ‘Manage my Products‘ and select ‘HTTP from ‘My Connections‘ dropdown list.

Set up the ‘HTTP API‘ by entering the minimum required information, the ‘Name‘, ‘Dial Prefix‘ and ‘Callback Type‘ as the image shown below. Click on ‘Submit‘ once done.

You should now obtain an ‘API ID‘ that is required before using the SMS service. Write this down somewhere as we will need it for the setup in the NAS administration in the next step.

Up to this point you have completed the account registration and mobile number verfications with Clickatell and have successfully obtained an ‘API ID’. You may now proceed to step 2.

Set up the SMSC and alert notification by SMS on the NAS

Go to ‘System Administration‘ > ‘Notification‘ > ‘Configure SMSC server‘ and enter the information we got from step 1 to configure the SMSC server as the image shown below.

Next go to ‘System Administration‘ > ‘Notification‘ > ‘Alert Notification‘ and enter your mobile number as the image shown below.

Congradulations it’s all setup and now you may wanna test if your have configure the SMS notification properly by clicking on the ‘SEND A TEST SMS MESSAGE‘ button. If nothing goes wrong you should be able to receive it in less than 10 seconds.

Setup the SMTP server and alert notification by Email

Go to ‘System Administration‘ > ‘Notification‘ > ‘Configure SMTP server‘ and enter a valid SMTP information. In this demostration I will use Gmail as the SMTP service provider.

Next go to ‘System Administration‘ > ‘Notification‘ > ‘Alert Notification‘ and enter your email address and specify whether you wanna receive system warning alerts too besides the system error alerts. You also get to test if the email sending process works by clicking on the ‘SEND A TEST E-MAIL‘ button.

Now no matter if you are out at work or away from home you will still be notified of the status and the condition of your QNAP right away by either a SMS sent to your mobile or a letter to your inbox and be able to act in case of any unexpected events.
