delete smtp-server {server_name | ip_address}


For example, to stop forwarding mail to the mail server 1.2.3.4, type:

sms2000%

delete smtp-server 1.2.3.4

Setting the SMTP ID

To configure the SMS2000 to modify the header of outbound e-mail messages from
subscribers to ensure that the configured SMTP server will accept their messages when
they are connected behind SMS2000, use this command:

set smtpid {on | off}


For example, to enable SNMP messages to be sent to the SMTP server, type:

sms2000%

set smtpid on

Note:

The commands set smtpid and set smtp-server are each independently

configurable mechanisms to help subscribers send e-mail messages without
changing any configuration items on their PCs.

Configuring NTP

The Network Time Protocol (NTP) server is used to synchronize the clock on the
SMS2000 with the true time. Using an NTP server ensures that the SMS2000 accurately
time stamps data to other servers, such as syslog. If an NTP server is not configured, the
SMS2000 (like many other devices) may experience clock drift and you may later need to
reset the time.

Setting the Timezone

Use the set timezone command to configure the timezone. You must configure a
timezone before you can synchronize system time using NTP.

To set the local time to a specified time zone, use this command:

set timezone timezone_name


For example, to set the time zone to Michigan time, type:

sms2000%

set timezone US/Michigan

Note:

To list the valid time zones, enter set timezone with no arguments
