mailsetting storage central-quarantine

mailsetting storage central-quarantine

Use this command to configure centralized storage of quarantined email. This command is only available on high-end models.

To reduce the storage resources required on lower-end FortiMail units, you can configure them to store quarantined email on a high-end FortiMail unit that you have configured to act as a centralized quarantine server.

Syntax

config mailsetting storage central-quarantine

set remote-storage-type {disable | from-client | to-server-over-ssl | to-server-plain}

set client-ip <client_ipv4>

set server-host <server_ipv4>

set server-name <name_str>

end

Variable

Description

Default

remote-storage-type {disable | from-client | to-server-over-ssl | to-server-plain}

Select the role of this FortiMail unit in a centralized quarantine:

  • disable: No centralized quarantine storage. The FortiMail unit stores its quarantines locally, on its own hard disks.

  • from-client:Act as a central quarantine server and receive quarantined messages from other client FortiMail units. Also configure client-ip <client_ipv4>. This feature is only available on FortiMail VM02/400E and more powerful models.

  • to-server-over-ssl: Same as to-server-plain, except that the connection uses SSL/TLS.

  • to-server-plain: Act as a central quarantine client and send quarantined messages to the other FortiMail unit in plain text. Also configure server-name <name_str> and server-host <server_ipv4>.

disable

client-ip <client_ipv4>

For FortiMail 1000D, 2000A, 2000B, and VM04 models, you can enter a maximum of 10 IP addresses as clients. For FortiMail 3000C and greater models, you can enter a maximum of 20 IP addresses.

This option applies only if remote-storage-type {disable | from-client | to-server-over-ssl | to-server-plain} is from-client.

server-host <server_ipv4>

Enter the IP address of the FortiMail unit that is acting as the central quarantine server.

This option applies only if remote-storage-type {disable | from-client | to-server-over-ssl | to-server-plain} is to-server-over-ssl or to-server-plain.

server-name <name_str>

Enter the name of the FortiMail unit that is acting as the central quarantine server. This name may be the host name or any other name that uniquely identifies the central quarantine server.
