Alarms

EMQX provides a wide range of Alarms information. In the open-source version, users can get alarm notifications by subscribing to system topics through the MQTT Protocol. To receive real-time alarm notifications, you’ll need to create an MQTT client to subscribe to these system topics.

tip

With the release of EMQX v5.8, alarm information is no longer visible on the dashboard in the open-source version. This change makes emqx_guard_pro even more valuable for receiving real-time alarm alerts.

emqx_guard_pro greatly enhances and broadens the alarm features by:

  • Allowing real-time notifications to various platforms
  • Providing easy configuration that doesn’t require any coding
  • Introducing additional new alarm types

If you have suggestions for more useful alarm types, don’t hesitate to open an ISSUE.

Here are some examples of alarm notifications you might receive via email:
