Using Call Home<br />
The Call Home feature allows you to configure switches to send alerts regarding<br />
events and faults to Email addresses. Examples of Email destinations are pagers,<br />
cell phones, NOC (Network Operations Center) operators/applications, and<br />
support organizations. You can configure the type of events and where the alerts are<br />
sent. Use the Call Home Setup dialog (Figure 28) to configure call home parameters.<br />
To display the Call Home Setup dialog, open the <strong>Switch</strong> menu, select Call Home,<br />
and select Setup.<br />

Value<br />
The "(active)" indicates the Primary SMTP (Simple Mail<br />
Transfer Protocol) is the SMTP server that CallHome<br />
will use when transmitting Email messages. CallHome<br />
operates as an SMTP client, or more correctly, an SMTP<br />
sending agent.<br />
After any system configuration, the Primary SMTP<br />
server will always become the active SMTP, provided it<br />
is enabled and has a non-default address defined<br />
(0.0.0.0 is the default).<br />
This setting is the IP address of the primary (first)<br />
SMTP server.<br />
This setting is the service port number that the primary<br />
SMTP server is listening on to accept connections from<br />
SMTP sending agents.<br />
