Chapter 38: SMTP Alert Commands

These commands configure SMTP event handling, and forwarding of alert
messages to the specified SMTP servers and email recipients.

logging sendmail host

This command specifies SMTP servers that will be sent alert messages. Use the no
form to remove an SMTP server.

Syntax

[no] logging sendmail host ip_address

ip_address - IP address of an SMTP server that will be sent alert
messages for event handling.

Default Setting

None

Command Mode

Global Configuration

Command Usage

• You can specify up to three SMTP servers for event handing. However, you

must enter a separate command to specify each server.

• To send email alerts, the switch first opens a connection, sends all the email

alerts waiting in the queue one by one, and finally closes the connection.

• To open a connection, the switch first selects the server that successfully sent

mail during the last connection, or the first server configured by this command.
If it fails to send mail, the switch selects the next server in the list and tries to
send mail again. If it still fails, the system will repeat the process at a periodic
interval. (A trap will be triggered if the switch cannot successfully open a
connection.)
