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 Event Pattern field, enter matches(Summary,'Rogue_AP_Detected')

Create Policy

In the Select Action, select Filter Events and Exclude

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