Authenticating the SMTP Server

> Authenticating the SMTP Server

> The MegaRAID Storage Manager software supports a SMTP authentication mechanism called Login. This feature provides an extra level of security, while sending an email from the MegaRAID Storage Manager server.

> To enter or modify the SMTP server authentication information, perform the following steps:

> 1. | On the Configure Alerts window, click the Mail Server tab.

> 2. | If on your SMTP server, the authentication mechanism is enabled and if you want to enable this feature on the MegaRAID Storage Manager software, then you need to select the This Server requires authentication check box and enter the authentication details in the corresponding fields (User name and Password).

> If you do not want to enable this feature on the MegaRAID Storage Manager software or if you know that your SMTP server does not support the Login mechanism, then de-select the This Server requires authentication check box.

> NOTE The This Server requires authentication check box is selected by default.

> 3. | Enter a user name in the User name field.

> This step is optional if This Server requires authentication check box is selected.

> 4. | Enter the password in the Password field.

> This step is optional if This Server requires authentication check box is selected.

> 5. | Click OK.
