Advanced Network Management Settings

The ANMS sub-section is used to set up login authentication
and authorization management from external sources. It is
split up into two pages; Event Destination and Authentication,
which are explained in the sections that follow.
Event Destination
The Event Destination page allows the KVM to be set up to
record and send notifications of events that take place on
the system. It allows you to enable and set up notification via
SMTP, SNMP, Syslog Server and the Log Server.
SMTP Settings
The SMTP Settings section allows you to have notifications of
system events emailed to you via the SMTP server. To set up
this feature, follow the steps below.
Note: The Notification Settings, described on page 54, must be enabled
for notifications to be sent.
• Check the Enable report from the following SMTP Server
checkbox.
• In the SMTP Server field, key in the IPv4 address, IPv6
address or domain name of the SMTP server.
• In the Service Port field, enter in a port that the firewall will
allow to be used to access the log server. The valid port
range is between 1 and 65535. The default port number is
25.
• If your server requires a secure SSL connection, check the
My server requires secure connection (SSL) checkbox.
• If your server requires authentication, check the My server
requires authentication checkbox.
• Enter in the Account Name and Password for your SMTP
server.
• In the From field, key in the email address that you want the
report to show up as being sent from.
Note: Only one email address is allowed in the From field, and it
cannot exceed 64 Bytes. 1 Byte is equal to 1 English alphanumeric
character.
• In the To field, key in the email address(es) you want the
report to be sent to.
Note: If you are entering more than one address, separate them with
a semicolon. The size of all email addresses cannot combine to more
than 256 Bytes. 1 Byte is equal to 1 English alphanumeric character.
Log Server
In addition to the log that is built into the OSD, the KVM
comes with an external Windows-based log server that can
be installed on a computer. (See The Log Server section for
details.) The Log Server section on this page is where the
external log server can be enabled and set up for use. To do
this, follow the steps below.
1. Check the Enable checkbox in the Log Server section.
2. In the MAC Address field, enter the MAC address of the
computer that the log server resides on.
3. In the Service Port field, enter in a port that the firewall will
allow to be used to access the log server. The valid port range
is between 1 and 65535. The default port number is 9001.
Note: The port number entered here must not be the same as any of
the ports entered into the Network sub-section. (See Network section
under Device Management for details.)
SNMP Server
This section allows you to enable SNMP traps to be sent. To
enable SNMP traps, do the following
Note: The Notification Settings, described on page 54, must be enabled
for notifications to be sent:
1. Check the Enable SNMP Agent checkbox.
2. In the Server IP field, enter the IPv4 address, IPv6 address or
domain name of the computer to be notified of SNMP trap
events.
3. In the Service Port field, enter in a port that the firewall will
allow to be used to access the SNMP server. The valid port
range is between 1 and 65535. The default port number is
162.
Note: The port number entered here must not be the same as any of
the ports entered into the Network sub-section. (See Network section
under Device Management in OSD Operation for details.)
Syslog Server
To record all the events that take place on the KVM and write
them to a Syslog server, do the following
Note: The Notification Settings, described on page 54, must be enabled
for notifications to be sent:
1. Check the Enable checkbox in the Syslog Server section.
2. In the Server IP field, enter the IPv4 address, IPv6 address or
domain name of the Syslog server.
3. In the Service Port field, enter in a port that the firewall will
allow to be used to access the Syslog server. The valid port
range is between 1 and 65535. The default port number is
514.
Note: The port number entered here must not be the same as any of
the ports entered into the Network sub-section. (See Network section
