15.2.1 Alerts

Alerts are reports on events, such as attacks, that you may want to know about right away. You can choose to
generate an alert when an attack is detected in the Attack Alert screen (Figure 15-2 - check the Generate
alert when attack detected
checkbox) or when a rule is matched in the Rule Config screen (see Figure
16-4)

.

When an event generates an alert, a message is immediately sent to an e-mail account specified by

you. Enter the complete e-mail address to which alert messages will be sent in the E-mail Alerts To field
and schedule times for sending alerts in the Log Timer fields in the E-mail screen (following screen).

Select this check box to enable
the firewall.
