The alert profile determines which alerts are sent and where the alerts are sent.
In Administration Console Dashboard, click Devices > Access Gateways > Edit > Alerts > [Name of Profile].
Select one or more of the following:
Connection Refused: Generated when a connection is refused.
Proxy Initialization Failure: Generated when the Embedded Service Provider fails to initialize.
System Up: Generated each time Access Gateway is started.
System Down: Generated each time Access Gateway is stopped.
Configuration Changed: Generated each time the configuration of Access Gateway is modified.
Failure in Audit, Stopping Services: Generated when the audit server has failed, and Access Gateway has been configured to stop services.
To configure Access Gateway to continue when auditing services are not available, click Auditing in dashboard, deselect the Stop Services on Audit Server Failure option, then click Apply.
Failure in Audit, Will lose events, but continuing services: Generated when the audit agent has failed. Access Gateway continues to run, but no audit events are generated.
As a workaround while solving this problem, you can enable proxy service logging (see Section 22.4.2, Configuring Logging for a Proxy Service). The common and extended log files provide some details on the HTTP traffic.
If you do not want Access Gateway to run without generating events, you need to manually shut down Access Gateway.
Failure in Audit, Server is offline: Generated when the audit agent is unable to contact the audit server. When this condition occurs, the audit agent uses local caching for the audit events.
Do not allow this condition to continue indefinitely. Access Gateway soon reaches the limits of its local cache. If this happens, events can be lost and Access Gateway might need to stop services.
For troubleshooting information, see “Troubleshooting Novell Audit” in the Novell Audit Administration Guide.
