Configure Database and SMTP Server Settings
With the release of Fireware v12.8, WatchGuard announced the deprecation of the WatchGuard Log Server, Report Server, and Quarantine Server. WSM still includes these server components, but they are no longer supported in v12.9 and higher. We will remove them in a future WSM release.
- Right-click in the system tray and select Open WatchGuard Server Center.
- Type the Administrator passphrase.
The WatchGuard Server Center appears. - In the Servers tree, select Quarantine Server.
The Quarantine Server Configuration settings appear.
Database Settings
Preferred database size
This setting is for email notifications. It does not limit the maximum size of the Quarantine Server database. It is used to calculate the warning threshold for notification messages.
Type the preferred database size for the Quarantine Server database warning notification messages. The database size range is 1–10000 MB. The default setting is 10000 MB.
The dialog box shows the current size of the database and the amount of unused space.
Send an email notification if the database reaches the warning threshold
Select this check box to receive a warning message when the database is near the selected limit.
Warning threshold
Specify when the database sends you a threshold warning message.
Send email to
Type the full email address of the account where you want to send the notifications.
For example, suppose that you select to receive a warning message. If you set the default warning threshold to 90%, and set the preferred database size to 1000 MB, the Quarantine Server sends a warning message when the Quarantine Server database size reaches 900 MB.
SMTP Server Settings
Outgoing email server (SMTP)

If your SMTP server accepts connections on a port other than port 25, type the address of your SMTP server in the format <localhost>:<port number>.
For example, smtp.example.com:42.
