MediationZone includes an internal event broker, which is configured using the Event Notification feature. An Event Notification configuration is used to intercept MediationZone standard, as well as user-defined, events and alarms. This information can subsequently be dispatched to any number of target applications.
The Event Notification configuration acts as a filter that collects and streams events to any of the following target systems:
Log file
Database
E-mail
SNMP Trap receivers
MediationZone System Log
