Alert settings
The appliance supports two types of alert groups that an administrator can use to filter events.
The Pre-Defined group provides default filtering according to the SP's SEL or IMLsource.The User-Defined group allows an
administrator to configure a specific group for filtering. When an SPis added to the appliance, the appliance will set the
default Pre-Defined group, according to the SPtype. By default, the User-Defined group will be disabled. If the SPdoesn't
support SELor IML, the Pre-Defined group will be disabled as well.
An administrator can change the SPtype for the Pre-Defined group setting, though the group and log source should remain
matched.
