The Web Alarm popup window

When a Web Alarm Action fires, and you are logged in to the WhatsUp Gold web interface, the Web Alarm popup box appears in your browser. From here, you can dismiss one or all of the alarms listed. You can also mute them. Muting an alarm leaves the alarm listed, but stops the alarm from sounding.

Note: You cannot disable Web Alarms from the popup window.

Note: If there are web alarms in the list with different sounds configured for each, the oldest web alarm's sound takes priority. To hear a new or different sound for a web alarm, dismiss the previous web alarm from the list.

To access more information on one of the devices listed in the popup window, double-click the device to bring up its Device Status Dashboard.

Note: In order for a WhatsUp Gold user to view the Web Alarm popup window and hear the alarm that sounds, a user account must have the Manage Devices user right enabled. For more information, see About user rights.
