page with your browser. This is especially helpful if you have
more than one ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card and intend to
receive e-mails at a central location.
If your SMTP server requires a qualified domain name instead
of an IP address or requires a qualified user name in the
sender’s email address, additional configuration items are
available with a serial or Telnet connection (see Chapter 3,
“Local Configuration” on page 9). SMTP configuration options
areavailablethrough
Email Notification on the Web/SNMP Card
Settings menu. Under most circumstances, changes are not
required for these options.
NOTE To completely clear the contents of any configuration item, enter a
tilda (~) and press the Enter key.
: SMTP Port Number SMTP server access is typically gained
via port 25. For installations where a different port number
is used, configure the port number using this option.
:
Substitute Domain Name for Sender’s Email Address – The default
domain name for the sender’s e-mail address is the
ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card’s IP address. You can enter a
qualified domain name with this option.
:
Optional SMTP Username The ConnectUPS Web/SNMP
Card’s Identification Information field data is used as the
user name for the SMTP server as well as in the sender’s
e-mail address. Use this option to configure a qualified user
name.
Note that the text used in the Identification Information
field remains unaffected; this text is also used to display
additional information when browsing the card.
:
Optional SMTP Password Under certain circumstances, a
password may be required to obtain access to a SMTP
server. If your server requires a password, enter it here.
When changing any e-mail configuration items, it is strongly
recommended to use the
Send Test function to test your
changes. Any e-mail errors are logged in the ConnectUPS
Web/SNMP Card Event Log. Review the Event Log within a
few minutes of testing the e-mail to see if any errors are
logged.
