6.4.2 Set the Alarm Filter

You can set the Skyline Alerter to filter specified parameters. This filtering restricts alerts to a specific
subset of alarms.

Decide whether to use a simple client-side filter, an advanced client-side filter or a server-side filter. If you
use any client-side filter, all alarms are sent to the client. If you use a server-side filter, only the
unacknowledged alarms are sent to the client.

1. On the Skyline Alerter main window, click the Settings button (see Figure 6-6 Skyline Alerter

Settings).

2. On the Options window, select the Filter tab.
