Agent E-Mail Configuration - Network Monitoring with E-Mails
The SCALANCE X-200 provides you with the option of automatically sending an E-mail (for
example to a network administrator) if an alarm event occurs. The E-mail contains the
identification of the sending device, a description of the cause of the alarm in plain language,
and a time stamp. This allows centralized network monitoring to be set up for networks with
few nodes based on an E-mail system. When an E-mail event message is received, the
WBM can be started by the browser using the identification of the sender to read out further
diagnostic information.
E-mails can only be sent when
• the E-mail function is activated on the SCALANCE X-200 and the E-mail address of the
recipient is configured.
• the E-mail function is enabled for the relevant event.
• there is an SMPT server in your network that can be reached by the SCALANCE X-200.
• the IP address of the SMPT server is entered on the SCALANCE X-200.
