control s alert forwar ding to each fo rwarder.
●By configuring different forwarders, low severity and high severity control

Each alert is mapped to an alert definition entry, which is predefined by a daemon

An alert filter is a user defined configuration to define the forwarders destination of
active alerts. Any active alerts with Renotify Interval set to non-zero value and
