is determined by the Policy Entry #.

in this policy set.

2 - If alert to previous destination was successful, do not send alert to this destination. Do not process any

more entries in this policy set.

.

8. Enable the check box if the Alert policy entry is Event Specific.

9. Choose any value that is used to look up the Alert String to send for this Alert Policy entry. If the Event

specific is selected (above), then the value is used in conjunction with Event filter Number to lookup the Alert
String from the PEF configuration Parameters. If the Event Specific is not selected, it directly selects an alert
string from the PEF Configuration Parameters.

The Alert String is used for a Dial Page. The combination of Event Filter Entry and alert destination are used

to select a given Alert String from a set of strings kept in the PEF (Platform Event Filtering) configuration

parameters.

This enables different strings to be sent based on what event filter was matched and where

the alert is being sent.

NOTE

: The PEF Configuration Parameters are set by the PEF commands which configure and control the

Platform Event Filtering (PEF) and Alerting capabilities. For more information, contact Lanner
