RX1000/RX1100™

The Shared Secret field configures a unique password used to authenticate communications with
this server. Note that the shared secret must also be configured on the RADIUS server for the router
being configured.

The Timeout field sets the maximum time in seconds to wait for responses from a RADIUS server
before aborting the transaction with the current server. When the timeout expires, RuggedRouter will
proceed to the next configured server (if one has been configured) to retry the transaction.

The Service field configures whether the server authenticates LOGIN, WEBMIN, PPP LOGIN or any
combination of these types.

The Bind Interface field sets the source IP address for RADIUS requests for the WEBMIN service
only. The IP address of the selected network interface will be used as the source address for these
exchanges. If "none" is selected, the source IP address will be that of the network interface from which
messages are transmitted to the RADIUS server. Note again that this setting applies to the WEBMIN
service only.

34.8. Outgoing Mail

Figure 34.34. Outgoing Mail

Outgoing Mail is configured from within the Maintenance menu Miscellaneous sub-menu. This menu
controls where emails originated by the router are forwarded to.

The Forward to Mail Hub field specifies an IP address or domain name of a host that accept mail
from the router.

The Belongs to Domain field specifies the email domain the router is part of. This information is
written into the email header upon transmission.

The Hostname field specifies the hostname to be written into the email header upon transmission.

Helpful Hint

You can generate emails from scheduled commands and scripts with

“(echo "To: ops@myco"; echo -e "Subject: Hello!\n"; some-command) | sendmail -t”.
