Viewing and
Managing Selected
Events
By selecting an event in the Event List, you can carry out the following
actions. These actions do not apply to events generated by the Collector
or the Reporter.
■
Show detailed information about the event.
■
Acknowledge the event.
■
Modify the event rule on which the event is based, and increase or
decrease the rule’s sensitivity.
■
Disable the event rule.
■
Modify the event rule to ignore the device(s) that caused the event.
■
Display the traffic in the Map that caused the event.
■
Display a graph of the traffic that caused the event.
The last three operations depend on the type of event, and are described
in more detail in the remainder of this section.
Deleting Events You cannot manually delete events. Events are deleted automatically after
a certain period of time. This is the same amount of time for which trend
data is stored. You can specify the maximum amount of disk space that
will be used to store this data from the Traffix Control Panel. See
“Database Maintenance” on page 123 .
Ignoring Devices or
Connections
You can modify the event rule that generated an event to ignore certain
devices or connections. This only applies to events triggered by event
rules, and prevents the event being generated in future.
Displaying an Event
in the Map
You can use events to drive the Map. It can display a view representing
the traffic that triggered a selected event, depending on the type of the
event. This only applies to events triggered by event rules.
Displaying an Event
in the Launch Graph
Dialog Box
You can use events to drive the Launch Graph dialog box. The Launch
Graph dialog box can display graphs of the data related to the traffic that
generated the event (showing two comparative data sets where
appropriate). This only applies to events triggered by event rules.
