•
Turn e-mail notification on
Check this box if you wish to receive e-mail logs and alerts from the router.
•
Your outgoing mail server
Enter the name of your ISP’s outgoing (SMTP) mail server (such as mail.myISP.com). You
may be able to find this information in the configuration menu of your e-mail program. If you
leave this box blank, log and alert messages will not be sent via e-mail.
•
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
Specifies 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 WPN824 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.
