Tut Systems SMS2000 Configuring NTP, Setting the Smtp ID, Setting the Timezone, Set smtpid on off

System Administration

delete smtp-server{server_name ip_address}

For example, to stop forwarding mail to the mail server 1.2.3.4, type:

sms2000% delete smtp-server 1.2.3.4

Setting the SMTP ID

To configure the SMS2000 to modify the header of outbound e-mail messages from subscribers to ensure that the configured SMTP server will accept their messages when they are connected behind SMS2000, use this command:

set smtpid {on off}

For example, to enable SNMP messages to be sent to the SMTP server, type:

sms2000% set smtpid on

Note: The commands set smtpid and set smtp-serverare each independently configurable mechanisms to help subscribers send e-mail messages without changing any configuration items on their PCs.

Configuring NTP

The Network Time Protocol (NTP) server is used to synchronize the clock on the SMS2000 with the true time. Using an NTP server ensures that the SMS2000 accurately time stamps data to other servers, such as syslog. If an NTP server is not configured, the SMS2000 (like many other devices) may experience clock drift and you may later need to reset the time.

Setting the Timezone

Use the set timezone command to configure the timezone. You must configure a timezone before you can synchronize system time using NTP.

To set the local time to a specified time zone, use this command:

set timezone timezone_name

For example, to set the time zone to Michigan time, type:

sms2000% set timezone US/Michigan

Note: To list the valid time zones, enter set timezone with no arguments
