11.5 Alerts
Alerts are reports on events, such as attacks, that you may want to know about right away. You can choose to
generate an alert when an attack is detected in the
Attack Alert
screen
(Figure 11-12 -
check the
Generate
alert when attack detected
checkbox) or when a rule is matched in the
Edit Rule
screen (see
Figure 11-4)
.
Configure the
Log Settings
screen to have the ZyWALL send an immediate e-mail message to you when an
event generates an alert. Refer to the chapter on logs for details.
