How to filter out unwanted alerts from sending to SOI

Products

• CA Service Operations Insight (SOI)

Issue/Introduction

We are getting over 8K Rogue_AP_Detected alarms from Spectrum and don't want those alarms sent to SOI.

Environment

Release : 4.2

Component : Service Operations Insight (SOI) Manager

Resolution

We did the following to prevent the Spectrum connector from sending those Rogue_AP_Detected alarms from being sent to SOI...

 

We created an Event policy to filter the event at the Spectrum connector side.

Open Event Policy GUI in the SOI console:

In Event Pattern field, enter

    matches(Summary,'Rogue_AP_Detected')

Create Policy

This opens a new window:

 

In the Select Action, select Filter Events and Exclude

..

Select Save and Deploy policy and select the Spectrum connector as the source.
