McDATA Sphereon™ 4500 Fabric Switch Product Manager User Manual
Using Maintenance Features
Enable E-Mail Notification
E-mail addresses and the simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) server
address for e-mail notification of switch events must be configured
through the EFC Manager application. Refer to the McDATA
Enterprise Fabric Connectivity Manager User Manual (620-005001) for
instructions on configuring e-mail.
NOTE: E-mail recipients are configured in the EFC Manager through the
Configure E-Mail dialog box. A valid SMTP address is configured in this
dialog box.
Use the Enable E-Mail Notification function on the Product Manager to
enable e-mail notification for events that occur on a selected switch.
The default state is disabled.
To enable e-mail notification, use the following steps:
1. Select Enable E-Mail Notification from the Maintenance menu on the
menu bar.
2. To enable e-mail notification, select the option to add a check
mark to the check box.
3. To disable e-mail notification, select the option to remove the
check mark from the check box.
Enable Call-Home Notification
NOTE: Call-Home may not be available if you are using a customer-supplied
server platform for the EFC Management applications.
The call-home feature enables the EFC Server to automatically dial
out to a support center to report system problems. The support center
server accepts calls from the EFC Server, logs reported events, and
notifies one or more support center representatives.
Configure telephone numbers and other information for the
call-home feature through the Windows dial-up networking
application. Refer to the McDATA Sphereon 4500 Fabric Switch
Installation and Service Manual (620-000159) for details.
