Call Home Setup dialog box fields
Field
Description
Primary SMTP: (active)
(active)
indicates that the Primary SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol) is the SMTP server that Call Home uses when transmitting email
messages. Call Home operates as an SMTP sending agent.
After any system configuration, the Primary SMTP server becomes the
active SMTP server, if it is enabled and has a non-default address defined
(0.0.0.0 is the default).
Primary SMTP Server
Address:
IP address of the primary (first) SMTP server
Primary SMTP Server Port:
Service port number that the primary SMTP server is listening on to accept
connections from SMTP sending agents
Secondary SMTP:
Secondary SMTP server. If the primary SMTP is not enabled/defined, or if
there is a failure in communicating with the primary SMTP server, the Call
Home feature uses the secondary SMTP server to transmit emails.
Secondary SMTP Server
Address:
IP address of the secondary SMTP server
Secondary SMTP Server
Port:
Service port number that the secondary SMTP server is listening on to
accept connection from SMTP sending agents
Contact Email Address:
Email address of the point-of-contact for the switch. This email address is
included in the text of email messages using the FullText format under the
section for Contact Information.
Phone Number:
Phone number of the point-of-contact for the switch. This value is included
in the text of email messages using the FullText format under the section for
Contact Information.
Street Address:
Address of the point-of-contact for the switch. This value is included in the
text of email messages using the FullText format under the section for
Contact Information.
From Email Address:
Email address that is provided to the SMTP server indicating the sender of
the email being transmitted. In emails sent by Call Home, this address
appears in the message heading as the From: address. This value is
required to send emails. If there are any problems encountered in routing
the email to any of the intended recipients, the notice of the problem is
sent to this address. It is an important address for receiving email notices
concerning problems.
This address is also the default address used when replies are sent to an
email by a recipient. If the Reply-To: Email address is supplied it overrides
the sending of replies to the From: Email address by recipients. However,
any notifications of email problems sent by any SMTP server used to route
the message to the final recipient always sends those notifications to the
From: address.
