Configuring an Event Correlation
To configure an event correlation for two open door alarm events:
1. At the main prompt, configure an event correlation named
DoorAlarms with a
description of
Correlation for open door alarms:
config correlation DoorAlarms description Correlation for open
door alarms
2. Configure the true duration time in the expression for 900 seconds, meaning an
alarm will be sent if the door is open for 15 minutes; set the false duration time to
0 seconds (immediate), meaning an alarm will be sent immediately upon closure:
config correlation DoorAlarms duration 900 0
3. Configure the correlation expression for the two doors as input 0/1 open and
input 0/2 open:
config correlation DoorAlarms expression input 0/1 open and input
0/2 open
4. (optional) Verify that the action has been configured properly:
show correlation DoorAlarms
The command response appears similar to the following:
In this scenario, you will:
 Configure a correlation expression for two open door alarm events
 Configure the time (duration) for which the expression must remain true or false
before the correlation matches the expression’s state
 Create two alarm table entries for the open door events.
