In this case, the Vantage Report server sends the account information to the e-
mail address associated with the specified user name. See
33 for an example of the Login screen.
• test message - The Vantage Report administrator tests the SMTP mail server
settings. The Vantage Report server sends an e-mail message to the e-mail

more information.

2.3 Time in the Vantage Report Server

• In Vantage Report, clock time is the time the Vantage Report server receives
information (log entries or traffic statistics) from the ZyXEL devices, not the
time the device puts in the entry. As soon as the Vantage Report server receives
information, it replaces device times with the current time in the Vantage Report
server.
• The Vantage Report server processes log entries and traffic statistics before the
information is available in any screen (including log viewers). For performance
reasons, the Vantage Report server does not process this information right
away. Instead, the processing time depends on the way the information is used
in Vantage Report. See the following table for processing times for each menu
item.
