The Cisco Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) does not have the ability to send e−mail alerts on its own. Cisco
IPS Manager Express (IME) has the ability to send e−mail notifications when an Event Rule is triggered. The
variables that can be used within the e−mail notification for each event includes variables such as the
Signature ID, the source and destination of the alert, and many more.

In this section, you are presented with the information to configure email notification with the Cisco IPS
Manager Express.

Complete these steps in order to configure Email notifications using Cisco IPS Manager Express:

Choose Tools > Preferences as shown in the screen shot.

1. 

Now in the Preferences window that has opened, choose the Notification tab. Make sure that the
check box next to Enable email/epage notifications is checked, which is a must for the IME to send
email notifications. Provide the required information in the Mail Server, From Address, and Recipient
Address(es) fields as shown in the screen shot. In this example, the Mail Server used is test.com, the
From email Address used is abc@xyz.com and the Recipient email Address is
admin@mycompany.com.
