Alert rules

[former_member474221]

Hi

I have abt 70 interfaces between system A and system B . Also there are another 30 interfaces from System A to System C

My question is how many alert rules should I create. Should I have 1 alert rules for each namespace ( then I will have to create abt 100 alert rules )

OR should i create the alert rules based on systems like one alert rule between system A and B and another alert rule between system A and C ..that ways I need to create only 2 alert rules....

which one of these options is right ??

so in my case if i create only 2 rules ..one between sys A and sys B and other between System A and C will that work

Also can I use the same alert category across all the alert rules

Hi Hema,

you can use 2 alert rules.. one between sys A and sys B and other between System A and C and you can use the same alert category across all the alert rules..
