Configuring a New Rule or Modifying a Rule
Creating a new rule and modifying an existing rule use the same window fields. The New
Configuration and Modify Configuration windows look identical except that Modify Configuration
displays the current settings for an existing rule. The definitions below apply to both operations.
There are two parts to an event rule; the rule configuration itself, and the association of the rule to its
target devices.
1 Select the rule folder or the individual rule name in the Configurations tree to display the
rule details in the main panel of the window.
2 Select the individual rule you want to modify.
3 Click the Modify button at the top of the page.
This opens the Modify Configuration window, showing the rule definition for the target you
selected. The Modify Configuration window shows the same information as the New
Configuration window, but with the information for the current target filled in.
See “Configuring a New Rule or Modifying a Rule” on page 131 for details about the fields
in this window.
1 Select the rule folder or the individual rule name in the Configurations tree to display the
rule details in the main panel of the window.
2 Select the individual rule or rules you want to delete.
3 Click the Delete button at the top of the window.
4 A warning is displayed asking you to confirm that you want to delete these rules. Click Yes
to delete the rule(s) or No to cancel the action.
To synchronize the EPICenter database with the RMON rules in place on a switch, click the
Sync button at the top of the window.
This opens the Synchronize RMON Rules window, where you can select devices for
synchronization. See
“Synchronizing EPICenter with Device RMON Rules” on page 138 for a
description of the Synchronize RMON Rules window, with instructions on performing the sync
operation.
