TOPOLOGY OVERVIEW
in this User Manual.
DNS Server(s) IPv4 address(es)
The WebMux will attempt to resolve names for settings such as the email server for email
notifications and front network verification (if an FQDN of an external site is used instead of
your external gateway/firewall IP). Specifying DNS servers will not have any effect on the
network traffic management functions of the WebMux. The DNS server of 8.8.8.8 (Google’s
public DNS server) is used by default. You can leave the field blank if you do not want to
use this feature.
Email Server URL for Notification
The WebMux can send email notifications. Enter the IP address or FQDN of the email
server that will forward the notifications.
Enter the email server information as a URL. For example:
smtps://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
SMTP will use port 25. Other protocols you can use are
“msa” or “submission”, both will
default to port 587. If only an IP address is entered, “smtps” is assumed and will default to
port 465. Non-standard ports can be specified in the URL using a colon after the IP
address.
Email User Name
Enter the user name or login to authenticate on your email server.
Email User Password
Enter the password used to authenticate on your email server.
Addresses for Email Notification
Enter the email addresses to be notified. Separate multiple addresses with a colon. For
example: [email protected]:[email protected]
When you have the email server, email user name, email password, and email
addresses filled out, you can use the “Email Test” button on the bottom of the page to
make sure you are able to receive emails from the WebMux.
UDP Syslog Server IP Address Notification
The WebMux can be configured to send syslog messages to a remote syslogd server.
Enter the syslogd server IP address to use this feature. The syslogd server must be
configured to accept remote UDP syslog connections. The facility for WebMux syslog
messages is LOCAL6.
The notification levels of the syslog messages are as follows:
