Network > Email/SMTP
The Email/SMTP page allows configuration of the Email/SMTP protocol and email options.
Authentication Notes:
• SMTP authentication allows the mail client in the PRO2 to log into the mail server during the process
of sending an email. The mail server may require this login to relay mail to another mail server
.
• The supported SMTP authentication types are: None (default, no SMTP authentication); Digest-MD5;
CRAM-MD5, Login, Plain, and Any. SMTP authentication occurs with a configured username/password,
or the address in the ‘From’ Address field with ‘From’ Address selected can be used in place of the
username.
To configure SMTP protocol options:
1. Type the hostname/IP address in the SMTP Host field (either IPv4 or IPv6 format).
2. Provide the port number or accept the default as shown.
3. From the drop-
down menu, select the authentication method, and from the “with” menu, select username or
‘from’ as described directly above in the notes.
4. Type the desired Email/SMTP username; spaces are not allowed.
5. Type the password for the username. The password sets the SMTP authentication with the username.
Acceptable passwords are 1-32 alphanumeric characters, case-sensitive, and spaces are not allowed. To
change the password, type over it, and check the Change box.
6.
Provide the ‘From’ email address.
7.
Provide the Primary/Secondary ‘Send To’ email address. If the primary ‘send to’ address fails, the system
then attempts to send the email to the secondary ‘send to’ address.
8. From the Subject ID drop-
down menu, select the “Sentry_nnnnnn” default option (where “nnnnnn” is the
last 3 octets of the MAC address), or
select the “Location” option to specify the email subject line.
9. Click Apply.
