Configuring email notification
To configure email notification of events
1. In the Configuration View panel, right-click the system and select Configuration > Services > Email
Notification.
2. In the main panel, set the options:
• Notification Level. Select the minimum severity for which the system should send notifications:
Critical (only); Warning (and Critical); Informational (all). The default is none, which disables email
notification.
• SMTP Server address. The IP address of the SMTP mail server to use for the email messages. If the
mail server is not on the local network, make sure that the gateway IP address is set in System
Settings > Network Interfaces.
• Sender Name. The sender name that, with the domain name, forms the “from” address for remote
notification. Because this name is used as part of an email address, do not include spaces. If no
sender name is set, a default name is created.
• Sender Domain. The domain name that, with the sender name, forms the “from” address for remote
notification. Because this name is used as part of an email address, do not include spaces. If no
domain name is set here, the default domain value is used. If the domain name is not valid, some
email servers will not process the mail.
• Email Address fields. Up to four email addresses that the system should send notifications to. Email
addresses must use the format user-name@domain-name.
3. Click Apply.
