Call Home Setup fields
Field
Description
Primary SMTP: (active)
(active)
indicates that the Primary SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol) is the SMTP server that Call Home will try to use when
transmitting email messages. Call Home operates as an SMTP sending
agent.
After any system configuration, the Primary SMTP server will always
becomes the active SMTP, provided it is enabled and has a non-default
address defined (0.0.0.0 is the default).
Primary SMTP Server
Address:
The IP address of the primary (first) SMTP server.
Primary SMTP Server Port:
The service port number that the primary SMTP server is listening on to
accept connections from SMTP sending agents.
Secondary SMTP:
The second SMTP server. If the primary SMTP is not enabled/defined, or if
there is a failure in communicating with the primary SMTP server, the
Secondary SMTP server will become the (active) SMTP server—the one
used by Call Home for the next attempt to transmit email.
Secondary SMTP Server
Address:
The IP address of the secondary SMTP server.
Secondary SMTP Server
Port:
The service port number that the secondary SMTP server is listening on to
accept connection from SMTP sending agents.
Contact Email Address:
The 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:
The 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:
The 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:
The 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.
