Event Notification Tasks

A Packeteer event is a network situation that can trigger an alert message sent via email, an SNMP trap message, and/or a Syslog message. Network and system administrators rely on event notification to proactively manage network resources. For example, you can use event notification to automatically report to you when there are unacceptable network delays or when there isn't enough bandwidth to satisfy guaranteed rate demand. By having PacketWise send you notifications automatically, you have the opportunity to be aware of situations before they trigger user complaints. For more information, see the Overview of Event Notification.

This section includes tasks for configuring the event notification feature, defining and registering events, and viewing the event status report.
