Standard categorization based on the significance of an event: The filtering step is not always mandatory, some CI's have significant events that are communicated directly into the management tool (even if they are duplicated). If ignored, the event will usually be recorded in a log file on the device, but no further action will be taken.ĭuring the filtering step, the event will receive a level of correlation (type: informational, warning, or exception). Once an Event notification has been generated, it will be detected by the specific tool (read and interpreted)įiltering means that the event notification can be ignored or communicated to the management tool. The CIs are configured to generate a set of events based on the designer's experience. Most of the Configuration Items (CIs) generate event notifications using SNMP open protocol ( Simple Network Management Protocol).
