Event Policy Manager

If the profile enhancement feature is set in the system configuration settings (see Logins Settings for more information on this), you need to remember the following points while creating/editing event policies:

·         A location-restricted user will not be able to edit default event policy rules.

·         When a location-restricted user creates a new rule, by default the Hierarchical location field is auto-populated.

·         The new rule will be applied only to devices belonging to the user’s location.

·         When a location-restricted user creates an event policy it also applies to the unprivileged child locations under the location-restricted user.

·         Location-restricted users cannot filter devices of their location while creating an event policy.

Note   These points are applicable only when the profile enhancement feature is set in the Logins page of the System Configuration window (starting with ICPAM 2.1); otherwise the ICPAM appliance retains its behavior as in prior versions (starting with CPAM 1.5.1).

To modify event policies, do the following:

Step 1          Select Event Policy Manager from the Events & Alarms menu, in the Configuration submenu. 

The Event Policies main window shows all event policies defined within the system.

Step 2    Modify the events, if necessary:

·         Select an existing entry and click Edit. The detail window opens. You can also double-click the entry.

·         Click Add... to open a detail window where you can add a new event policy.

·         Select an entry and click Delete to delete that event policy.
