1440 minutes. The default is 30 minutes.
• Scheduled Message Severity — Select the severity from the drop-down list (Emergency, Alert, Critical, Error,

(192.0.2.10).
A host name can consist of one or more labels, which are sets of up to 63 alphanumeric characters. If a host name
includes multiple labels, each is separated by a period (.). The entire series of labels and periods can be up to 253
characters long.

The default port is 465.

account will be used as the email address of the sender. The user name can contain in the range of 1 to 64 alphanumeric
characters that includes "@", "-", and "." .
• Password — Enter the password for the email account that will be used to send these emails. The password can be
from 1 to 64 characters.
