Overview

PrimeAlert Event Gateway opens and/or closes alarm events based upon received SNMP v1/v2c traps. The SNMP traps are logged to a file, which is then scanned for regular expression patterns. These regular expression patterns were previously defined in rule(s) which were created either manually by the user or were automatically generated by PrimeAlert Event Gateway parsing MIB file(s). When an incoming SNMP trap matches a rule's regular expression patterns, then PrimeAlert Event Gateway either opens or closes an alarm event for that rule. In addition, the logged SNMP traps can be displayed using PrimeAlert FileBrowser. Lastly, PrimeAlert Event Gateway can be loaded multiple times for monitoring multiple ports.

The following help pages describe how to load and use PrimeAlert Event Gateway.
