In the countries list, the English name “Turkey” has been changed to “Türkiye”, to reflect the official name change.
TLS (1.2) Support for Sending Email Notifications (SMTP)
FlexNet Operations now supports transport layer security (TLS) 1.2 for SMTP servers. To use TLS, populate the following fields in the system configuration under System > Configure > FlexNet Platform Server > General Options:
|
•
|
Outbound Mail Server Host: smtp.gmail.com (example value) |
|
•
|
Outbound Mail Security: SSL |
|
•
|
Outbound Mail Server Port: 587 |
|
•
|
Outbound Mail Account: username@gmail.com (example value) |
|
•
|
Outbound Mail Password: password (example value) |
Important:On virtual machine installations of FlexNet Operations, ensure that the SMTP server port used for TLS 1.2 is open to establish a successful connection. If the port is not open, the error “Unable to create connection to mail server” is returned.
