6 Specify the SMTP server IP address:
a Locate the SMTP (Email) Server field, and then type the SMTP
hostname or IP address.
NOTE: You must configure the SMTP email server to accept relayed emails
from the CMC's IP address, a feature which is normally turned off in most mail
servers due to security concerns. For instructions as to how to accomplish
this in a secure manner, refer to the documentation that came with your SMTP
server.
b
Enter the desired originator email for the alert, or leave it blank to use
the default email originator. The default is cmc@[IP_address] where
[IP_address] is the IP address of the CMC. If you choose to enter a
value, the syntax of the email name is emailname[@domain], and an
email domain can be optionally specified. If @domain is not specified
and there is an active CMC network domain, then the email address
of [e-mail] is used as the source email. If @domain
is not specified and CMC has no active network domain, then the IP
address of the CMC is used (for example, emailname@[IP_address]).

7 Specify the email address(es) that will receive the alerts:
a Type a valid email address in an empty Destination Email Address
field.
b Enter an optional Name . This is the name of the entity receiving the
email. If a name is entered for an invalid email address, it is ignored.
c Click Apply to save your settings.
