Secure Connect Gateway 5.x — Virtual Edition User's Guide

Configure SMTP server settings

Prerequisites

Ensure that Transport Layer Security (TLS) version 1.2 is enabled on the SMTP server.

About this task

You must configure the SMTP server details of the company to receive email notifications from secure connect gateway. If the SMTP settings are not configured, a banner is displayed on the secure connect gateway user interface asking you to update the same.
NOTE:
  • When you go to the Configure SMTP server settings page for the first time while you are logged in, an SMTP server connectivity test is performed automatically to check the connectivity status. A success or failure message is displayed after the completion of the test.
  • If you close the banner on the secure connect gateway user interface that informs you about withdrawal of support for TLS 1.0 and 1.1, the automatic connectivity test is not performed when you go to the Configure SMTP server settings page.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings > Environment configuration > Connectivity details > SMTP server.
  2. Enter the hostname or IP address and port number of the SMTP server.
  3. If the SMTP server requires authentication, enable the option to enter the details and enter the username and password to access the proxy server.
  4. Enter up to 10 email recipients and the sender email address that must be used to send the email messages from secure connect gateway.
    NOTE:You must add the correct domain to avoid emails being filtered as spam. It is recommended that you use your own domain to send the emails. You can also register the SMTP server with dell.com or emc.com to send your emails.
  5. Test the connection and then click Apply.
    If the connection is successful, a confirmation email is sent to all the email recipients that you provided.
