Email
Alert Configuration
One of Network Enforcer's responses to violated behavior filters
is an email alert. Network Enforcer can be configured to send an
email alert notification when filter security thresholds are met.
Setting it up
To configure Network Enforcer's Email Alerts click
on "Email
Alerts" tab after clicking on "General Options" in the "Options"
menu .
Enter your mail settings as explained below. When filter thresholds
are met, you will receive an email stating when the event occurred,
who performed it, and what they did exactly.
SMTP Host: This is your mail host that you use
for your email clients. If you do not know this contact your ISP
or system administrator. You can configure Network Enforcer to
use an alternate SMTP port on your email host by configuring the
host in the following format - hostname:alternateport (example:
mail.company.com:26)
Recipient: This is where the logs are delivered
to. Most likely your own administrative email address.
Mail From: This is the address where your mail
will be sending from. It is a good idea to use your own email
address for this, or you can make up one (but this may not sometimes
work well).
SMTP Authentication: If your SMTP host requires
authentication on outgoing email then this option should be configured.
