Event policies enable an administrator
to create specific notification mechanisms using one, some or all of the SNMP,
syslog, forwarding or e-mail notification options available. Each listed event can have
customized notification settings defined and saved as part of an event policy. Thus,
policies can be configured and administrated in respect to specific sets of client
association, authentication/encryption and performance events. Once policies are defined,
they can be mapped to device profiles strategically as the likelihood of an event applies
to particular devices. By default, there's no enabled event policy and one needs to be
created and implemented.
Existing policies can have their event notification
configurations modified as device profile requirements warrant.
Ensure the Activate Event
Policy button is selected to enable the screen for configuration. This
option needs to remain selected to apply the event policy configuration to the access
point profile.
Use the Select
Event Module drop-down menu on the top right-hand side of the screen to
select an event module used to track the occurrence of each list event.
Review each event and select (or
deselect) the SNMP,
Syslog, Forward to Switch or
Email Notification
option as required for the event. Map an existing policy to a device profile as
needed. Select Profile from the Map drop-down menu in the lower-left hand side of the
screen. Expand the list of device profiles available, and apply the event policy as
required.
Select OK to save the changes.
Select Reset to
revert to the last saved configuration. Delete obsolete rows as
needed.
