Switched Rack PDU
67
SMTP
Server
Selects one of the following methods for routing e-mail:
• Through the SMTP server provided with the Rack PDU (the
recommended option, Local). This option ensures that the e-mail is
sent before the 20-second time-out for the Rack PDU, and, if necessary,
is retried several times. Also do one of the following:
• Enable forwarding at the SMTP server provided with the Rack PDU
so that it can route e-mail to external SMTP servers. Typically,
SMTP servers are not configured to forward e-mail. Always check
with the administrator of your SMTP server before changing its
configuration to allow forwarding.
• Set up a special e-mail account for the Rack PDU to forward e-mail
to an external mail account.
• Directly to the recipient’s SMTP server (the Recipient’s option). On a
busy remote SMTP server, the time-out may prevent some e-mail from
being sent, and with this option the Rack PDU tries to send the e-mail
only once.
When the recipient uses the SMTP server provided with the Rack PDU,
the Recipient’s setting has no effect.
Generation Enables (by default) or disables sending e-mail to the recipient.
