To receive maintenance and outage notifications, users must be set as a Technical Contact. Full Admins (not Read-Only) can add new Technical Contacts, and may set their own account as an admin and technical contact.

 

Note:  Contacts cannot log in to the portal, unless they are also set as a User. They are only set as the point of contact to receive notifications. They cannot make any changes to services or settings.

 

There are two types of PacketFabric Contacts:

 

• Admin: Receive notifications when a 3rd party requests a connection via the MarketPlace
• Technical: Receive any communications for maintenance / outage notifications

 

To add or update users as Technical Contacts:

 

1. Log in to the portal as a full admin at https://portal.packetfabric.com/auth/login.
2. In the upper navbar, select ADMIN:

 

3. Under Account  in the left panel, select COMPANY CONTACTS:

 

 

The Company Contacts list appears. 

 

 

4. In the list of users, either select the edit icon for an existing user, or Add Company Contact to add a new user.

 

The Add or Update Contact form appears.

 

 

5. At the bottom of the Contact  panel, select the checkbox for Technical:

 

 

Note: You can check both the Admin and Technical checkboxes to enable a user with both privileges.

Once set as a Technical contact, that user will receive any future notifications regarding maintenance and outages via the email address set in their profile.
