Configuring email notification settings

Configuring email notification settings

In the DR Series system GUI, you can configure the email notifications/system alerts that are sent to users who have been assigned the Email Recipient role. For more information about the Email Recipient role, see the topic, “Adding a User.” You can also send a test email message during this configuration process to verify that the proper email recipients receive the proper system alert messages and notifications.

To configure email notification settings, complete the following steps:

1.
Select System Configuration > Users.
The Users page is displayed.
2.
In the Action menu in the upper right corner of the page, click Email Notification.
The Email Notification pane is displayed.
3.
In the Email Relay Hostname field, enter an external mail server (aka relay host) fully qualified domain name (FQDN), hostname, or IP address..
This setting configures the external email relay host to serve your DR Series system if the network email system requires one. The email relay host is typically an external mail server that relays any email alerts from the DR Series system to each of the designated recipient email addresses.
4.
Select Yes or No for the following options to define the type of notifications and alerts to be emailed to the Email Recipient user(s).
◦
Notify me of DR Series appliance alerts—Sends an email notification for system alerts.
◦
Notify me of DR Series software updates—Sends an email notification to the designated user when a new software update is released.
