# Manage alerts and integrations

After deploying the Local WEKA Home, you can configure it to send specific alerts or events through Email (SMTP), PagerDuty, or SNMP Traps (v1/v2c/v3). For example, you can set it to email alerts to a specific address when the cluster's data protection level falls below the configured threshold.

## Set the Local WEKA Home to send events and alerts

Setting the Local WEKA Home to send events and alerts includes the following procedures:

1. **Create an integration:** Set the destination on the **Integration** page.
2. **Create rules:** On the **Rules** page, select the rule conditions to trigger specific alerts or events and assign the rule to the integration.

### Create an integration

1. Access the Local WEKA Home portal with an admin account and the password (obtained. during the LWH deployment. See [#id-5.-access-the-local-weka-home-portal-and-grafana](https://docs.weka.io/4.4/monitor-the-weka-cluster/local-weka-home-deployment#id-5.-access-the-local-weka-home-portal-and-grafana "mention")).
2. From the menu, select **Manage** > **Integrations**.
3. On the **Integration** page, select **New**.

3. On the **Create Integration** page, select one of the destinations and set the relevant values as follows:

{% tabs %}

   * **v1:** SNMP version 1, which only requires the SNMP server hostname or IP address and a plaintext community.
   * **v2c:** SNMP version 2c, similar to SNMP v1, but adds support for 64-bit counters.
   * **v3\_NoAuthNoPriv:** SNMP version 3 with security of a user name and EngineID, but without authentication and privileges.
   * **v3AuthNoPriv:** SNMP version 3 with security of a user name, EngineID, and authentication but without privileges.
   * **v3AuthPriv:** SNMP version 3 with security of a user name, EngineID, authentication, and privileges.
