When an event is generated for any site in your ExtremeLocation Essentials account, it is sent to your remote web server
in real-time. Filters, if any, are applied to the events before being transmitted.
Filters are used to control the event types to be passed to your web server.
Use the Third Party
Configuration window to configure the information required for ExtremeLocation Essentials to connect to your
server. Also use this screen to filter the event types of interest for your
deployment.
A web server or service must be configured to receive the data. This web server can
then pass on the received data to third-party application data processors for
further action or it can store the data locally.
To configure ExtremeLocation Essentials to connect to your
remote web server:
Select Settings > System
Settings > Third Party
Configurations.
The Third Party
