Configure Email Event Types
Select the desired Event types from the Console or Web Browser Event type page (a description of each event
type is given later in the Email Alarm Events setting subsection).
Configure Email Settings
To configure a Moxa switch’s email setup from the serial, Telnet, or web console, enter your Mail Server
IP/Name (IP address or name), Account Name, Account Password, Retype New Password, and the email
address to which warning messages will be sent.
Activate your settings and if necessary, test the email
After configuring and activating your Moxa switch’s Event Types and Email Setup, you can use the Test Email
function to see if your e-mail addresses and mail server address have been properly configured.
Configuring Event Types
Event Types can be divided into two basic groups: System Events and Port Events. System Events are
related to the overall function of the switch, whereas Port Events are related to the activity of a specific port.
