Authentication with SMTP Server
—If you use an outgoing mail server provided by your
current ISP, you do not need to check this box. If you use an e-mail account that is not
provided by your ISP, check this box and enter the required user name and password
information.
•
Send To This E-mail Address
—Enter the e-mail address to which logs and alerts are sent.
This e-mail address will also be used as the From address. If you leave this box blank, log and
alert messages will not be sent via e-mail.
You can specify that logs are automatically sent to the specified e-mail address with these options:
•
Send alert immediately—
Check this box if you would like immediate notification of
attempted access to a blocked site.
•
Send logs according to this schedule—
Use this option to specify how often to send the logs:
Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or When Full.
–
Day for sending log
Specifies which day of the week to send the log. Relevant when the log is sent weekly or
daily.
–
Time for sending log
Specifies the time of day to send the log. Relevant when the log is sent daily or weekly.
If the Weekly, Daily or Hourly option is selected and the log fills up before the specified
period, the log is automatically e-mailed to the specified e-mail address. After the log is sent,
the log is cleared from the router’s memory. If the router cannot e-mail the log file, the log
buffer may fill up. In this case, the router overwrites the log and discards its contents.
The RP614v4 router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time and date
from one of several Network Time Servers on the Internet. In order to localize the time for your
log entries, you must specify your Time Zone:
•
Time Zone
—Select your local time zone. This setting will be used for the blocking schedule
and for time-stamping log entries.
•
Daylight Savings Time
—Check this box if your time zone is currently under daylight savings
time.
