Configuring actions and notifications
You can configure NetCentral Lite to trigger one or more actions whenever it receives
an alarm or warning message. For each action that is triggered, you can also set unique
properties. In this way you can trigger the same type of action multiple times, but set
the properties differently for each action. This is useful for multiple notifications, such
as sending e-mail to several different addresses. By configuring actions and properties
in this way you can create a customized set of notifications for alarms and another
customized set for warnings.

All actions and properties are configured from the Actions dialog box or the Actions
Wizard. Since the properties are different for each type of action, they may require
some special preparations, such as procuring a sound file or a program. Read the
explanation for each type of action to determine if you need to do some preparations
before you can add a particular action.

Actions Wizard opens. Follow the on-screen instructions to add an action, as

Warning, or both. Then, in the Action list, select the type of action that you want
performed.
