Responses determine how the appliance
will notify you when it detects an intrusion or other important event.
Create responses and then apply them to events as necessary.
About this task
IPv6 addresses are not supported
in the response policy.
Configuring email responses

notifications for individuals or groups when events occur. You can
also select the event parameters to include in the message to provide

IPS appliance
to configure responses that block intruders, including worms and Trojan
horses, when the appliance detects events.

network management protocol (SNMP) notification responses for events
that pull certain values and send them to an SNMP manager.
Configuring user-specified responses
Use the User Specified tab to configure
user-specified responses to events, such as executing an application
in response to an event on the system.
