What Can I Do Here?

Configure a Mail Server for SecureTrack

  1. Go to Admin > Notifications.

  2. Enter SMTP information for:

    • SMTP Server: SecureTrack can send email notifications and alerts directly (using its SMTP engine), or act as an email client, and send emails to an organizational SMTP server. In order to send emails to an SMTP server, configure its IP address in this option. The default setting for the SMTP Mail Server is localhost, which sends emails directly.

    • SMTP Port: The port used by your SMTP server.

    • Source Email Address: The email address chosen by SecureTrack in the SMTP email messages sent (for example: [email protected]). This can be used for easy identifications of email messages coming from SecureTrack.

    • SMTP server requires authentication: Select this if your SMTP server requires authentication for sending email, and type the username and password that will be used by SecureTrack to communicate with the SMTP server.

    • Enable SMTP over SSL: Select if your SMTP requires certificate encryption when sending and receiving emails. If you require encryption then select to trust all certificates or list specified certificates.

      The option Trust only the certificate below. For non-TufinOS users, this option requires PHP version 5.6 or above.

  3. Click Save.
