2 Type the information required to configure the mail server in the fields provided, then click OK .
NOTE
If you have e-mail configured as an alarm action and the mail server is not reachable and times out when an alarm
occurs, the Alarm System will stall waiting for the action to complete. The Alarm System may also stall if a program
configured as alarm action never completes.
Configuring the Trap Forwarding Settings
You can change the settings for trap forwarding as follows:
1 Click the lower Settings... button (next to the Forward Trap to field) on the Action page.
This displays the Trap Forwarding Settings window, as shown in Figure 55 . The window initially
shows the global trap receiver settings configured in the Administration applet, as part of the Server
Properties configuration for SNMP (see
“SNMP Properties” on page 366 for how to set these global
settings).
SMTP Host The outgoing mail server name (or IP address).
Sent By The e-mail address that should be used as the sender of the e-mail.
My server requires
authentication Check this if your mail server authenticates the user before sending out e-mail and
enter the user name and password of an account that the SMTP server will accept.
Usually this is the account you use to log into your network.
If you don’t know whether your server requires authentication, you can go ahead
and enter the authentication information—it is ignored if it is not actually needed.
User Name The user name for mail server authentication
Password The password for mail server authentication
