Cisco WAP131 and WAP351 Administration Guide
• Data Encryption—Choose the mode of security for the outbound email
alert. The alert can be sent using the secure TLS protocol or the default
Open protocol. Using the secure TLSv1 protocol can prevent eavesdropping
and tampering during the communication across the public network.
• Port—Enter the SMTP port number to use for outbound emails. The range is
a valid port number from 0 to 65535. The default port is 465. The port
generally depends on the mode used by the email provider.
• Username—Enter the user name for the email account that will be used to
send these emails. Typically (but not always) the user name is the full email
address including the domain (such as Name@example.com). The specified
account will be used as the email address of the sender. The user name can
be from 1 to 64 alphanumeric characters.
• Password—Enter the password for the email account that will be used to
send these emails. The password can be from 1 to 64 characters.
In the Message Configuration area, configure the email addresses and subject
line:
• To Email Address 1/2/3—Enter up to three addresses to receive email
alerts. Each email address must be valid.
• Email Subject—Enter the text to appear in the email subject line. This can be
up to a 255 character alphanumeric string.
Click Test Mail to send a test email to validate the configured email account.
Click Save. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.
