The Edit Event Settings page serves to assign an action to the event selected on the Event Settings page and displayed here with its Application, Name and Description. If more than one event has been selected, the specifying information is replaced by the term Multiple. To associate an action, select the desired Action radio button:
Display Notification - a notification will be displayed on the bottom of all pages and a record is added into the System Events table. The notification is presented as a "Please check your pending events" link. This link leads to the System Events page. This action also will take place if Flash LED or Send Mail has been selected, even if not specifically selected.
Flash LED - the 2nd LED (yellow) will blink every second and a notification will be displayed on the bottom of the page.
Send Mail - a notification e-mail about the new event description in the email will be sent to the e-mail address specified in the Mail Settings.
Send SNMP Trap - an SNMP notification will be sent to the traphost(s) listed in the SNMP Trap Settings table.
Send SMS - an SMS notification about the new event on the QX200 will be sent to the mobile phone specified in the SMS Settings page.
Attention: In case of an IDS (Intrusion Detection System) intrusion alert, only the first possible intrusion in each 10 minute period will initiate an event. This helps to avoid flooding the System Events table, and flooding the user with various intrusion alerts that result from each possible Denial of Service attack. When these events are displayed in the System Events table, the user can receive detailed information about the intrusions through a link to the IDS log list.
If QX200 cannot receive an IP address from the DHCP or PPP servers, or cannot register an extension on the SIP or Routing servers, or cannot reach an NTP server, it raises only one event for the entire period the action has failed, but will continue to try. When the required action is successful QX200 raises an appropriate message.
