:alert settings

Overview

Alert settings include Alert Group and Notification Methods.

Alert Group: A set of contacts who receive notifications about service exceptions. When the Global Traffic Manager (GTM) health check feature detects an exception, such as an abnormal IP address or an unavailable address pool, GTM sends an alert to the specified alert group.

Notification Methods: This setting specifies which event types trigger alerts and how notifications are sent. Alert Event Type options include Address Unavailable, Address Restored to Available, Address Pool Unavailable, and Address Pool Restored to Available. Available notification methods include Email Notification, Chatbot Notification, and Text Message Notification. Chatbot notifications support DingTalk, WeCom, and Lark.
