Email / TLS and Network Storage
« on: August 27, 2019, 11:50:32 PM »

I just got a DCS 2670L camera. When configuring / testing the "Event Setup"  I tried to setup email  notification using TLS over port 587. I have a number of other DCS  cameras configured using email over TLS/587 without problem. But for the 2670L I could not get it going. It looks like the initial authorization failed.
2019-08-28 07:59:22 xxxxxxxxxxxx sendmail[30683]: STARTTLS=server, relay=[192.168.42.204], version=TLSv1, verify=NOT, cipher=ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/25
2019-08-28 07:59:22 xxxxxxxxxxxx sendmail[30683]: x7S5xGVg030683: [192.168.42.204] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MSA
I have used the same mailserver and account for other cameras without any problem.  Using plain port 25 without TLS was a workaround for me.  With the camera and mailserver on the same closed network I believe it's  acceptable

I discovered that the "Network storage" server alternative has been remove. This alternative has been around for many of the cameras for a long time. This was a bit of disappointment. The FTP alternative was alternative  for me (but not the preferred one). 
I'm are running the latest firmware  2.01.10


Are you aware of any issues using mail tls/587 notification?
Why was the Network Storage server option removed?

Is D-Link long term direction to remove the the WEB UI for their cameras?


IF so I can understand the rationality but IMHO the mylink has a long, long way to go before I  would find it appealing and functionally worthy and overall worthy.

Hello, I have the same firmware and I use TLS on port 587 to send emails. I have no problems, it works very well.
For network storage I was also surprised and I do in ftp.

I'm glad that someone have it working. It gives me hope I will give it a more in depth try. I have six 2132L cameras using mail notification and the same mail server and account without  any issues. I was quite convinced I had the new 2670L setup in the same way. Maybe I have not  :o

Btw what mail server  and version of the server  are you using?
What openssl version are you using?

I'm on  sendmail 8.15.2 and openssl 1.1.1b

best regards,

Hmm still unsuccessful to get it working.  The difference between the camera working and the one not working is:

Working camera
  • Remote and comes in via a router
  • Use cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA

Non Working Camera
  • Is a node on the local LAN (and is relayed via the router on the LAN
  • Using cipher ECDHE_RSA_AES256-SHA

Both ciphers appers for TLSv1 when listing the ciphers in openSSL. In sendmail I have not specified any ciphers so I assume that it will use what openSSL has.

Looking at more verbose senmail logs. It looks like the failing camera does not even got to the authorization phase. The last logging is

2019-08-29 19:27:54 xxxxxxxxxx sendmail[2923]: STARTTLS=server, cert-subject=, cert-issuer=, verifymsg=ok
2019-08-29 19:27:54 xxxxxxxxxx sendmail[2923]: AUTH: available mech=GSS-SPNEGO GSSAPI LOGIN PLAIN, allowed mech=EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN

2019-08-29 19:27:54 xxxxxxxxxx sendmail[2923]: x7THRl8S002923: <-- QUIT


The verbose sendmail logs for a failing connection and a successfull connection are found via the URL below.

 Hello, unfortunately I don't have the same computer knowledge as you do.
What I meant, in the hope that it will help you is my configuration of the mail event.
Sender's e-mail address xxxx@gmx.fr
Recipient's email address xxxx@gmail.com
Address of the mail server.gmx.com
User name xxxx@gmx.fr
Password °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Port 587
checked "This server requires a secure connection (StartTLS)"

Thanks, for me it looks like the camera terminates/quit the TLS session before the authentication. Everything looks ok in the mail server log. Unfortunately the logging in the camera is very sparse so it's not possible to tell why the camera quit the session.

Below you will see the fail interaction

2019-08-30 08:08:08 xxxxxxxxx sendmail[18794]: STARTTLS=server, relay=[192.168.42.204], version=TLSv1, verify=NOT, cipher=ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256

This is how it looks from a camera that works

When running a TCP trace on the sessions that work and does not work I can see that the key exchange and TLS session is established in both cases. In the session that fails the client sends one application message and the mail server responds with one application message before the mail server send an Encrypt alerts.

From tracing an uncrypted session I can see that the first application message from the client is a "MAIL FROM:..." The server would then respond with a "250 2.1.0 <sender> ... Sender ok.

So when running the 2670L over port 25 unencrypted mail notification works.
When using port 587 and TLS is does not work.

Using testing with a 2230L against the same mailserver and and mailaccount port 587 and TLS works.

The only difference between the two cameras as I can see is that the 2670L uses the cipher ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA while the 2230L is using DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA.

But since the trace indicates that the establishment of the TLS session is ok i both cases I wounder if that has any relevans? However the mailserver respons to the Client Key Exchange message says "Change Cipher Spec" was the cipher then changed to something else? Have both the same capabilities to deal with any new cipher (if it was changed)?

Here is the summary trace for the working 2230L camera
