General Information
As the name implies, General Information is displayed on this page, as well as items that affect the general state
of the box. Disable E-mail Notification causes the ForeSight 6100 EMS to ignore events generated by this
devise for purposes of sending e-mails. Disable Severity Propagation prevents this node from telling its parent
container its current severity. Re-Enable Propagation on Severity Change causes the above option to be turned off
if the state changes.
The General Information dialog includes the following buttons:
•
Administrative Web Page
—Clicking on this button causes a web browser to launch and display the web
page for the current node so you can manage the node
•
Open Telnet Window
—Clicking on this button causes the Telnet client to launch “pre-loaded” with the
address of the current node so you can manage the node
•
Force Auto-Config Push
—Clicking on this button causes the ForeSight 6100 to check immediately for an
ACP condition instead of waiting until the ForeSight 6100 performs a poll of the node
