c.Click Save to keep changes to recipient e-mail addresses and file names.

CAUTION File names must end with an .eml extension.

Due to the 7 character limit for full file names, it’s advised that you use numeric titles (e.g., 1.eml, 24.eml). Numeric titles reduce the characters of the file name, and assist in keeping the alert files organized. However, alphabetical titles are permitted.

To finalize your new e-mail alerts within the Web server, do the following:

6.Obtain your gateway IP address from your system administrator.

7.Click System Settings on the menu on the left side of the window.

8.Within the System Settings screen (figure 4-10) place the gateway IP address into the Gateway IP Address field.

Sending an e-mail alert through Telnet

To complete the process of sending an e-mail alert, you must send it through a Telnet session and receive confirmation. To do so:

1.Open a Telnet session. For instructions on how to do this, see Accessing and using Telnet later in this chapter.

2.Use the “Send e-mail” SIS command to send the alert to the e-mail address of a numeric mailbox (see figure 4-15). Refer to the Command/response table for Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands later in this chapter for specific command code.

For example, the code for sending an alert from the 4th numeric mailbox would be

Esc 4 SM
