NOTE
Auto warning e-mail messages will be sent through an authentication protected SMTP server that
supports the CRAM-MD5, LOGIN, and PLAIN methods of SASL (Simple Authentication and
Security Layer) authentication mechanism.
We strongly recommend not entering your Account Name and Account Password if auto warning
e-mail messages can be delivered without using an authentication mechanism.
Configuring Relay Warning
The Auto Relay Warning function uses relay output to alert the user when certain user-configured
events take place. There are two basic steps required to set up the Relay Warning function:
1.
Configuring Relay Event Types
Select the desired
Event types
from the Console or Web Browser Event type page (a
description of each event type is given later in the
Relay Alarm Events setting
subsection).
2.
Activate your settings
After completing the configuration procedure, you will need to activate your EDS’s Relay
Event Types.
Event Setup
Event Types can be divided into two basic groups:
System Events
and
Port Events
. System
Events are related to the overall function of the switch, whereas Port Events are related to the
activity of a specific port.
The EDS supports two relay outputs. You can configure which relay output is related to which
events. This helps administrators identify the importance of the different events.
