Configuring the mail server connection

The program can send notifications about alerts and system performance. To do so, you must configure the settings of the server used for sending notifications.

To configure the server settings for sending notifications:

  1. In the main window of the program web interface, select the Settings section, Notifications subsection.
  2. Go to the Mail configuration tab.
  3. In the Host field, specify the IP address of the mail server.
  4. In the Port field, specify the port for connecting to the mail server.
  5. In the Email from field, specify the email address from which the notifications will be sent.
  6. If you want to enable authentication on the mail server, select the Use SMTP authentication of message recipients check box.
  7. In the User name field, specify the user name for authentication on the server used for sending notifications.
  8. In the Password field, specify the password for authentication on the server used for sending notifications.
  9. If you want to use TLS encryption when sending notifications, select the Use TLS encryption check box.
  10. If you want to validate the certificate of the mail server, select the Validate TLS encryption check box.

    The Certificate fingerprint field displays the fingerprint of the mail server certificate.

    If the Validate TLS encryption check box is not selected, the program will consider any certificate of the mail server as trusted.

  11. Click Apply.

The settings of the server used for sending notifications will be configured.
