E-mail. 

Mail Subject

Type a title that you want to be in the subject line of the log e-mail message that the 

ZyXEL Device sends. Not all ZyXEL Device models have this field.

Send Log To 

The ZyXEL Device sends logs to the e-mail address specified in this field. If this field 

is left blank, the ZyXEL Device does not send logs via e-mail. 

Send Alerts To 

Alerts are real-time notifications that are sent as soon as an event, such as a DoS 

attack, system error, or forbidden web access attempt occurs. Enter the E-mail 

address where the alert messages will be sent. Alerts include system errors, attacks 

and attempted access to blocked web sites. If this field is left blank, alert messages 

will not be sent via E-mail. 

Enable SMTP 

Authentication

SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the message-exchange standard for the 

Internet. SMTP enables you to move messages from one e-mail server to another.
Select the check box to activate SMTP authentication. If mail server authentication 

is needed but this feature is disabled, you will not receive the e-mail logs.
