Configure E-Mail notifications for Forefront Client Security - Step-By-Step Guide

I can only guess how many of you searched where can they find the e-mail notifications for FCS... So... It's there, you just need to know where to look.

to Configure E-Mail notifications, you first have to open MOM Administrator Console (Start -> Programs -> Microsoft Operations Manager 2005 -> Administrator Console

The Next step is opening the Administration container and clicking the Global settings tab.

now click on E-Mail Server and configure your e-mail server properties (server name, return address, Charset for alert mail and Mail server port):

After configuring those properties, click OK and go back to the administrator console. now go to Management Packs -> Notifications and right click "Operators" and choose "Create Operator" from the drop-down list.

Configure Operator Properties (Name, SMTP Address, Pager address and external command related to that operator - can be used for external SMS programs)

now click finish and open the Management Packs -> Notifications -> Notification groups container and right click the Client Security Notification Group and click properties.

on the following window add all the operators you wish to be notified by FCS alerts and click OK.

Thats it. we are done! :-)
