SMTP

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is an Internet standard protocol for email transmission between

source and destination addresses. Most mail servers support SMTP.

Adding an SMTP application monitor

APM monitor the SMTP application through the SMTP service port (25 by default). Before adding an

SMTP application monitor, follow these guidelines:

Add the host that provides the SMTP service to be monitored to the IMC platform.
For a host managed in the IMC platform, APM obtains and displays network connections of the
host and its access device in the application topology. For information about adding hosts to the

IMC platform, see H3C IMC Base Platform Administrator Guide.

Obtain the email address and mailbox account information to test the SMTP service by using APM

as an email client.

To view traffic statistics in the monitor report of the SMTP application, make sure at least one probe
is configured in APM. After an SMTP application monitor is added, APM sends the IP address and

service ports of the monitored SMTP application to the probes for traffic collection.

To add an SMTP application monitor:

1.

{

{

IP Address—Enter the IP address of the host on which the SMTP application to be monitored is
installed. APM automatically checks the IP address and associates the application monitor with

the host if it is already managed in the IMC platform. To monitor a host that is already managed

in the IMC platform, you can also click Select and select the host in the Select Devices window.

For information about selecting a host, see "
