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

–Remote Monitoring Service

–Syslog notification

•Indirect notification

–Event log. If no direct notification is configured, users must check the log to determine which events have occurred.

You can also log system performance data to use for device monitoring. See “Data log” on page 44 for information on how to configure and use this data logging

option.

– Queries (SNMP GETs)

For more information, see “SNMP” on page 61. 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.
