Abstract

A network management application provides notification of events on network devices using prepopulated notification rules. The notification rule is prepopulated by the network management application using conditions that represent the present state of the device being monitored. An associated notification action is executed when an event on a network device satisfies the conditions of the prepopulated notification rule. The notification action can be tested without actually creating a set of conditions for a device that satisfies the conditions of the notification rule.
