Creating an action policy
To create an action policy:
- From the WhatsUp Gold web interface, go to . The Action Policies dialog appears.
- Click . The New Action Policy dialog appears.
- Enter a name in . This name is used to identify the policy later, so you should make sure the name is something that helps you remember what is contained in this policy.
- Click . The Action Builder wizard appears.
- Follow the directions in the wizard.
- Click at the end of the wizard to add the action to the policy.
- Add as many actions as you need to complete the policy. You can move actions up and down in the list by clicking and above the action list.
If you select , WhatsUp Gold executes the actions in the list for each state, starting at the top, and stops as soon as an action successfully fires.
- After you have added all of the you would like for the policy, click to create the policy and add it to the active list.
: During Device Discovery, you can assign an existing action policy (if one has been created previously), create a simple action policy through a wizard, or access the Action Policy Editor to create an action policy yourself.
