17.1E-mail

17.1.1 Description

SMTP (RFC 821) is a TCP/IP protocol used in sending e-mail. However, since it's limited in its ability to queue messages at the receiving end, it's usually used with one of two other protocols, POP3 or Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) that lets the user save messages in a server mailbox and download them as needed from the server. In other words, users typically use a program that uses SMTP for sending e-mails (out going - e.g. replying to an e-mail message) and either POP3 or IMAP for receiving messages that have been arrived from the outside world. While SMTP (and its related protocols such as POP3, IMAP etc.) are useful transports for sending and receiving e-mails, it is extremely beneficial for a network administrator to receive e-mails in case of faults and alerts. The MultiLink ML1200 Managed Field Switch can be setup to send and e-mail alert when a trap is generated.

If this capability is used, please ensure that SPAM filters and other filters are not set to delete these e-mails.

GE Multilin recommends that a rule be setup on the mail server so that all e-mails indicating SNMP faults are automatically stored in a folder or redirected to the necessary administrators.

The SNMP alerts can be configured using the MultiLink Switch Software for the following:

•Send e-mail alert according to the configuration rules when a specific event category happens.

•Send e-mail alert according to the configuration rules when a specific trap SNMP trap category happens.

•Provide configuration and customization commands for users to specify SMTP server to connect to, TCP ports, user recipients and filters.

•The SMTP alerts provide the following capabilities:
