Alert Policy Table View
Figure 46 shows all the entries in the alert policy table, regardless of whether any settings are
associated with a particular entry or not. All entries are shown because the entries in the table
are order-dependent, so that when an alert occurs, entries in the table are processed from top to
bottom as the rmware attempts to match table entries with the policy number associated with the
event that caused the alert. By seeing all entries, you are able to ensure that the entries are in the
correct order.
One use of the policy table is to be able to specify multiple destinations for alerts that occur. This can
be done by assigning the same policy number to multiple entries in the table; but specifying different
destinations in the destination eld. If one policy is associated with multiple entries in the policy table,
users can further rene the destinations that receive alerts by using the policy type.
Note that because the rmware goes through the table in order from top to bottom, when an event
occurs, the table is searched in order for entries in which the policy number matches the policy
number associated with the event lter. So, the alert is sent to the destinations in the order in which
they are encountered in the policy table. You should make sure their destinations appear in the table
in the desired order.
The settings shown for each table entry are:
• Alert policy number
• Status indicating whether the table entry is enabled or disabled
• Policy type
• Channel on which the alert corresponding to the table entry would be sent on
• Destination IP address or phone number of the alert
• Alert string associated with the alert
