Command History
Usage Guidelines You can configure up to five SMTP servers for Call home. The VRF specified in the transport email
mail-server command is not used to send messages using HTTP. When CFS distribution is enabled,
devices that run Release 4.2 or earlier releases accept only the transport email smtp-server command
configurations while devices that run Release 5.0(1) or later releases accept both the transport email
smtp-server and transport email mail-server command configurations.
When a device accepts both the transport email smtp-server and transport email mail-server
commands, the transport email smtp-server command has a priority of 0, which is the highest. The
server specified by this command is tried first followed by the servers specified by the transport email
mail-server commands in order of priority.
This command does not require a license.
