Types of notification
You can configure event actions to occur in response to an event or group of events.
These actions notify users of the event in any of several ways:
• Active, automatic notification. The specified users or monitoring devices are
contacted directly.
– E-mail notification
– SNMP traps
– Syslog notification
• Indirect notification
– Event log. If no direct notification is configured, users must check the log to
determine which events have occurred
– Queries (SNMP GETs)
You can also log system performance data to use for device monitoring.
See
for information on how to configure and use this data
logging option.
For more information, see
. SNMP enables an NMS to perform
informational queries. For SNMPv1, which does not encrypt data before
transmission, configuring the most restrictive SNMP access type (READ)
enables informational queries without the risk of allowing remote
configuration changes.
