+## Canopsis
+
+Canopsis is a hypervision tool. LibreNMS can send alerts to Canopsis which are then converted to canopsis events. To configure the transport, go to:
+
+Global Settings -> Alerting Settings -> Canopsis Transport.
+
+You will need to fill this paramaters :
+
+~~
+```php
+$config['alert']['transports']['canopsis']['host'] = 'www.xxx.yyy.zzz';
+$config['alert']['transports']['canopsis']['port'] = '5672';
+$config['alert']['transports']['canopsis']['user'] = 'admin';
+$config['alert']['transports']['canopsis']['passwd'] = 'my_password';
+$config['alert']['transports']['canopsis']['vhost'] = 'canopsis';
+```
