Available Actions
The PDU comes with four built-in actions, which cannot be deleted. You can create additional actions for responding to
different events.
Built-in actions:
•
System Event Log Action:
This action records the selected event in the internal log when the event occurs.
•
System SNMP Notification Action:
This action sends SNMP notifications to one or multiple IP addresses after the selected event occurs.
Note: No IP addresses are specified for this notification action by default so you must enter IP addresses before
applying this action to any event rule. See Editing or Deleting a Rule/Action (on page 152). Any changes made to the
'SNMP Notifications' section on the SNMP page will update the settings of the System SNMP Notification Action, and
vice versa. See Configuring SNMP Settings (on page 91).
