Resetting the System Using the Front Panel
Pressing the Reset button located on the front panel of the Barracuda Spam Firewall does the
following:
• Reboots the system
• Resets the firmware version to the factory setting
Do not push and hold the RESET button for longer than a few seconds as this changes the IP address
of the system. Pushing and holding the RESET button for 8 seconds changes the default IP address to
192.168.1.200. Holding the button for 12 seconds changes the IP address to 10.1.1.200.
Automating the Delivery of System Alerts and Notifications
The BASIC-->Administration page lets you configure the Barracuda Spam Firewall to automatically
e-mail daily system status reports and system alerts to the e-mail addresses you specify.
Enter the e-mail addresses (comma separated) in the provided field and click
Save Changes. The
daily system status reports are sent out nightly and the system alerts on an as-needed basis.
The daily system status report shows the number of messages blocked, quarantined, tagged and
allowed for each hour of that day.
Changing the Operation Mode of the System
Your Barracuda Spam Firewall can operate in one of two modes: inbound mode or outbound mode.
The most commonly used mode is the inbound mode, which scans incoming messages for spam and
viruses. If your organization has a reason to scan outgoing messages from your users, you can
configure your system to operate in outbound mode.
A Barracuda Spam Firewall can only be configured for one mode.
If you choose to change the mode from inbound to outbound (or vice versa), note the following:
• All your message log data and quarantine messages are deleted.
• System configuration remains in tact. However, you should verify that the configuration options
are appropriate for outbound mode.
Restart Reboots the system.
Reload Re-applies the system configuration should the recent changes not
take effect.
Caution
Shutting down, resetting, or reloading the system can cause interruptions in e-mail delivery.
