Information Checklist

Before starting, ensure that the following items are available and/or the tasks have been performed:

  • Make sure that the machine is fully functioning on the network.

  • TCP/IP and HTTP protocols must be enabled on the machine so that the machine web browser can be accessed. Make sure that the DNS settings are configured correctly.

  • Obtain the address of a functional SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) mail server that accepts inbound mail traffic.

  • Create an e-mail account which the machine will use as the default From address.

  • Test the e-mail account by sending an e-mail to the machine’s account. This task should be completed at a mail client on your network that supports SMTP and POP3 (Post Office Protocol 3).
