Overview of IDP E-Mailer

You can also manage subscribers who have sent or received problem traffic by sending them an e-mail message that gives them information about the problem detected. The SRC application library provides a demonstration application, named IDP E-Mailer, that uses the gateway extension feature for Dynamic Service Activator to send e-mail notifications to subscribers. For information about developing gateway clients that use the gateway extension, see Overview of the SRC-SG.

The SRC software lets you map an IP address, which IDP identifies to be associated with problem traffic, to a subscriber so that a message can be sent to the subscriber. In the sample application, you specify a domain to append to subscriber names to formulate an e-mail address. In a production implementation, you could integrate information from a customer database to gain access to actual e-mail addresses. You can use the sample IDP E-Mailer as a basis for an application specific to your environment.

The idpemail.war file comprises the files for the IDP E-Mailer servlet. You can locate this file on the SRC application library CD in the /webapp directory. You can deploy the file as it is as a demonstration application, or you can customize the files in the WAR file. The SRC application library supplies complete source code for the IDP E-Mailer servlet in the WEB-INF/src directory in the idpemail.war file.
