Customizing Email Alerts
After you set an SMTP server to use for notification, you need to specify the types of alerts that
you want the STM150 to send out. The STM150 provides four types of alerts – update failed alert,
license expiration alert, malware alert, and outbreak alert.
If the update failed alert is enabled, the STM150 will send an email notification to the
administrator in the event of an update failure.
If the license expiration alert is enabled, the STM150 will send an email notification to the
administrator when a license expires.
If malware alert is enabled, the STM150 will send email alerts for each malware that is detected on
the network. Alerts for malware incidents can be customized using meta tags to specify the
information to include in the alert. Alert information can include malware name, protocol used,
date and time detected, etc.
If outbreak alert is enabled, the STM150 will send email alerts when a certain number of malware
is detected on the network within a specified period. Outbreak alerts can be enabled for all
protocols scanned and you can manually set the outbreak criteria.
Note: License expiration email notification is sent 45 days prior to expiration, and by the
second day of expiration. For trial licenses, the notification also is sent 15 days
before expiration.
