Notification by e-mail

If the e-mail system on the device is enabled, you can use the convenient e-mail notification. As soon as the firewall action is performed, the device sends an e-mail to the administrator in the following form:

FROM: device@company.com
TO: admin@company.com
SUBJECT: packet filtered
Date: 9/24/2002 15:06:46
The packet below
Src: 10.0.0.37:4353 {cs2} Dst: 192.168.200.10:80 {ntserver} (TCP)

and exceeded this limit: more than 0 packets transmitted or received on a connection
because of this the actions below were performed:

Sending e-mail from the device to the administrator only works if the correct e-mail address is entered.





LANconfig: Firewall/QoS > General

Command line: Setup > IP-Router > Firewall

In addition, a mailbox must be set up in order to send e-mail.





LANconfig: Log & Trace > SMTP account

Command line: Setup > SMTP > Firewall
