Enable specific alerts for an X10G security blade

The security blade can send traps for each of its modules: Appliance Controller, Content Gateway, Web Security, and Network Agent. The Alerts tab of the Configuration > Alerting page lists the alerts associated with only the modules that you have enabled.

A table for each module lists:

The hardware or software Event that triggers the alert (for example, a network interface link going down or coming up, or a Websense service stopping).

The Threshold, if applicable, that defines the alert condition (for example, CPU usage exceeding 90%, or free disk space reaching less than 10% of the total disk size).

The Type of alert (system resource or operational event).

Whether or not an SNMP trap is sent when the event occurs or the threshold is reached.

To enable all alerts for a module, select the check box next to SNMP in the table header. All check boxes in the column are selected.

Otherwise, mark the check box next to an event name to enable SNMP alerts for that event. To disable alerts for an event, clear the associated check box.

When you have finished configuring which events will trigger an alert for a module, click Save to implement the changes.
