Even in modem application, Video Server will send out a connection log whenever it dials
out to an ISP or dialup server outside. If the administrator has setup some applications
in either event mode or sequential mode, Video Server will send out snapshots once
conditions are met. To activate e-mail function, enter correct settings of "SMTP (mail)
server" and "Recipient email address". "Secondary SMTP (mail) server" and
"Secondary email address" are provided for backup connection when the primary one
fails. “Return email address” is whom the mail will return when the SMTP server
rejects upon any failure. Some ISP may reject the mail if the address is invalid.
FTP settings
To send the log files described in the above paragraph via FTP, the SMTP server should be
erased. Administrators must enter correct "Primary FTP Server", "Primary FTP user
name" and "Primary FTP password". "Primary FTP remote folder" is the relative
sub-folder in the remote FTP server. If the port of the remote FTP server is changed other
than 21, set the real port to “Primary FTP server port”. If the local network is
protected by a firewall to prevent from initiating FTP connection from the remote FTP
server, you may be able to connect to the FTP server but unable to put any file due to
data channel connection failure. Check “Primary FTP passive mode” for passive
transfer solution. Another set of "Secondary" server settings is also provided for backup
connection.
In either e-mail or FTP, the primary server information should be entered first. If the
primary server is not set, the related FTP or email will be cancelled. Note that it may take
time to connect to the secondary server after the first one fails and it may affect some
applications when conditions happen too often.

Administrators should notice that the basic network settings including IP address,
subnet mask, default router and DNS servers will be cleared when the network interface
is switched to the other between Ethernet and modem.
