Configuring alert email
• In NAT mode go to IDS > Alert Email .
In Transparent mode go to System > Config > Alert Mail .
• In the SMTP Server field, enter the name of the SMTP server to which the DFL-500 should send email.
The SMTP server can be located on the internal network or on the Internet.
• In the SMTP User field, enter the email address of a valid user of the SMTP server (for example,
[e-mail]).
This is the address that the mail will originate from.
• Enter up to 3 destination email addresses in the Email To fields.
These are the email addresses that the DFL-500 sends email alerts to.
• Click Apply to save the email alert settings.
• Make sure that the DNS server settings are correct for the DFL-500. See Setting DNS server addresses
.
Because the DFL-500 uses the SMTP server name to connect to the mail server, it must be able to look
up this name on your DNS server.
