Define Alarm Settings
- Device > Log Settings
Use the Alarm Settings to configure Alarms for
the CLI and the web interface. You can configure notifications for
the following events:
- A security rule (or group of rules) has been matched at a specified threshold and within a specified time interval.
- Encryption/Decryption failure threshold is met.
- The Log database for each log type is nearing full; the quota by default is set to notify when 90% of the available disk space is used. Configuring alarms allows to take action before the disk is full, and logs are purged.
When you enable alarms, you can view the current list by clicking
) in the bottom of the web interface.

( ![](/content/dam/techdocs/en_US/dita/_graphics/9-1/help/icon_alarms.png)
To add an alarm, edit the Alarm Settings described in the following
table.
Alarm Log Settings | Description |
---|---|
Enable Alarms | Alarms are visible only if you Enable
Alarms .If you disable
alarms, the firewall does not alert you to critical events that
require action. For example, an alarm tells you when the master
key is about to expire; if the key expires before you change it,
the firewall reboots into Maintenance mode and then requires a factory
reset. |
Enable CLI Alarm Notifications | Enable CLI alarm notifications whenever
alarms occur. |
Enable Web Alarm Notifications | Open a window to display alarms on user
sessions, including when they occur and when they are acknowledged. |
Enable Audible Alarms | An audible alarm tone will play every 15
seconds on the administrator's computer when the administrator is
logged into the web interface and unacknowledged alarms exist. The alarm
tone will play until the administrator acknowledges all alarms. To
view and acknowledge alarms, click Alarms .This
feature is only available when the firewall is in FIPS-CC mode. |
Encryption/Decryption Failure Threshold | Specify the number of encryption/decryption
failures after which an alarm is generated. |
<Log-type> Log DB | Generate an alarm when a log database reaches
the indicated percentage of the maximum size. |
Security Violations Threshold / Security
Violations Time Period | An alarm is generated if a particular IP
address or port hits a deny rule the specified number of times in
the Security Violations Threshold setting
within the period (seconds) specified in the Security
Violations Time Period setting. |
Violations Threshold / Violations
Time Period / Security Policy Tags | An alarm is generated if the collection
of rules reaches the number of rule limit violations specified in
the Violations Threshold field during the
period specified in the Violations Time Period field.
Violations are counted when a session matches an explicit deny policy.Use Security
Policy Tags to specify the tags for which the rule limit
thresholds will generate alarms. These tags become available to
be specified when defining security policies. |
Selective Audit | The selective audit options are only available
when the firewall is in FIPS-CC mode. Specify the following
settings:
