-mail recipients

Path: Configuration > Notification > E-mail > Recipients

Specify up to four e-mail recipients. Click on a name to configure the settings. See also “SMTP Server” above.

Advanced

Use SSL/TLS

• Never: The SMTP server does not require nor support encryption.

• If Supported: The SMTP server advertises support for STARTTLS but doesn't require the

connection to be encrypted. The STARTTLS command is sent after the advertisement is given.

• Always: The SMTP server requires the STARTTLS command to be sent on connection to it.

• Implicitly: The SMTP server only accepts connections that begin encrypted. No STARTTLS

message is sent to the server.

Require CA

Root

Certificate

This should only be enabled if the security policy of your organization does not allow for implicit

trust of SSL connections. If this is enabled, a valid root CA certificate must be loaded onto the NMC

for encrypted e-mails to be sent.

File Name

This field is dependent on the root CA certificates installed on the NMC and whether or not a root

CA certificate is required.

Field Description

E-mail

Generation

Enables (default) or disables sending e-mail to the recipient.

To Address

The user and domain names of the recipient. To use e-mail for paging, use the e-mail address for the

recipient’s pager gateway account (for example, [email protected]). The pager gateway

will generate the page.

To bypass the DNS lookup of the mail server’s IP address, use the IP address in brackets instead of

the e-mail domain name, e.g., use jsmith@[xxx.xxx.x.xxx] instead of jsmith@company.com. This is

useful when DNS lookups are not working correctly.

Note: The recipient’s pager must be able to use text-based messaging.

Format

The long format contains name, location, contact, IP address, serial number of the device, date and

time, event code, and event description. The short format provides only the event description.

Language

Chose a language from the drop-down list and any mails will be sent in that language. It is possible to

use different languages for different users. See “Adding and Changing Language Packs”.

Server

Select one of the following methods for routing e-mail:

• Local: Through the site-local SMTP server. This recommended setting ensures that the e-mail is

sent using the site-local SMTP server. Choosing this setting limits delays and network outages and

retries sending e-mail for many hours.

When choosing the Local setting you must also enable forwarding at the SMTP server of your

device and set up a special external e-mail account to receive the forwarded e-mail. Check with

your SMTP server administrator before making these changes.

• Recipient: Through the recipient's SMTP server. The NMC performs an MX record look-up on

the recipients e-mail address and uses that as its SMTP server. The e-mail is only sent once so it

could easily be lost.

• Custom: This setting enables each e-mail recipient to have its own server settings. These settings

are independent of the settings given under “SMTP Server” above.
