To configure email delivery of alerts edit the /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf file and enter the hostname or IP address of a suitable SMTP server as the mailhub= variable value.

 

 

To configure which events result in an alert email, as well as custom SNMP traps, edit the /config/user_alert.conf according to http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/3000/600/sol3667.html and http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/3000/700/sol3727.html.
