Synopsis
Below contains a brief explanation of the default notification settings along with a step-by-step description on how to configure Email Alert Notifications for the NetScreen FW.
Problem
Solution
This article applies to ScreenOS 4.0 and higher.
By default, emergency, alert, critical, and notification messages can be sent to an email address. Included in notification messages are traffic logs and configuration changes. However, due to security reasons, configuration changes are not designed to be sent via email. The only notification messages that are sent via email are traffic logs. Configuration change messages are only logged to the event log, internal on the device.
To configure email alert notifications on your NetScreen, perform the following steps:
Open the WebUI. For more information on accessing the WebUI, go to Accessing Your NetScreen using the WebUI.
From the NetScreen options menu, click Configuration, select Report Settings, and then click Email.
Click to select Enable E-mail Notification for Alarms.
Click to select Include Traffic Log.
Enter the SMTP Server Name.
In the E-mail Address 1 and E-mail Address 2 text boxes, enter the email addresses you wish to receive notifications.
Click Apply.
