SMTP/Email
The SMTP/Email page allows the configuration of Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and Email options.
Enabling or disabling Email support:
Select Enabled or Disabled from the Email Notifications drop-down menu and click Apply.
Setting the SMTP server address:
Enter the IP address or hostname in the SMTP Host field and click Apply.
NOTE: Both IPv4 and IPv6 formats are accepted in the Host field.
Changing the SMTP server port:
Enter the port number in the SMTP Port field and click Apply.
Setting the SMTP authentication type:
NOTES:
SMTP authentication allows the mail client in the PDU to login to the mail server during the process of sending a mail. The mail server
may require this login to relay mail to another mail server.
Supported SMTP authentication types are: None (default, no SMTP authentication); Digest-MD5; CRAM-MD5; Login; and Plain. SMTP
authentication occurs with a configured username and password, or you can use the address in the ‘From’ Address field in place of the
username.
From the SMTP Authentication drop-down menu, select an authentication method. From the “with” drop-down menu,
select “SMTP Username” or “From Address”. Click Apply.
Setting the Email SMTP authentication username:
In the Username field, type the desired Email SMTP username and click Apply. Spaces are not allowed.
Setting the Email SMTP authentication password:
The Set Email SMTP Password command sets the password for SMTP authentication with the username.
In the Password field, type a password of 1-16 alphanumeric and other characters (ASCII 33 to 126 decimal) are
allowed; passwords are case sensitive. Click Apply.
To change the password, type over it, check the Change checkbox, and click Apply.
Setting the ‘From’ email address:
Enter the ‘from’ email address in the ‘From’ Address field and click Apply.
Setting the ‘Send To’ email address:
Enter the ‘send to’ email address in the Primary or Secondary ‘Send To’ Address field and click Apply.
If the primary ‘send to’ address fails, the system then attempts to send the email to the secondary ‘send to’ address.
Setting the subject ID:
From the Subject ID drop-down menu, select the default “Sentry3_524640” option or the “Location” option to specify
the email subject line. Click Apply.

Check the type of event message to enable, and click Apply. Options are Event Messages, Authentication Messages,
power Messages, and Configuration Messages.
