Configuring the 
local SNMP server
When you select the 
Local SNMP Server
 option for the 
Send via
 setting, 
you must do one of the following:
Make sure that forwarding is enabled at that server so that the 
server can route email to external SMTP servers. 
Note:
Always see your SMTP-server administrator before 
changing the configuration of your SMTP server.

To Address
Defines the user and domain names of the recipient.
To use email for paging, use the email address for the recipient’s 
pager gateway account (for example, 
myacct100@skytel.com
). The 
pager gateway generates the page.
Note:
The recipient’s pager must be able to use text-based 
messaging.
Send via
Lets you choose one of the following methods for routing email: 
• Send email through the Environmental Monitoring Unit’s SMTP 
server. Selecting 
Local SMTP Server
, which is the recommended 
option, ensures that the email is sent before the unit’s 20-second 
timeout, and, if necessary, is retried several times.
• Send email directly to the recipient’s remote SMTP server. If you 
select the 
Recipient’s SMTP Server 
option, and the remote SMTP 
server is busy, the timeout may prevent some email from being sent, 
With this option, the management card tries to send the email only 
once.
When the recipient uses the Environmental Monitoring Unit’s SMTP 
server, this setting has no effect. 
Email 
Generation
Enables (by default) or disables sending email to the defined 
recipient.
