Chapter 12 Configuring Call Home for the Cisco CSR 1000V

How to Configure Call Home

Configuring General email Options

To use the email message transport, you must configure at least one Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) email server address. You can configure the from and reply-to email addresses, and you can specify up to four backup email servers.

Note the following guidelines when configuring general email options:

Backup email servers can be defined by repeating the mail-servercommand using different priority numbers.

The mail-server priority number parameter can be configured from 1 to 100. The server with the highest priority (lowest priority number) is tried first.
