How to Use Alarms - What is an Alarm? -
At the heart of a NerveCenter behavior model is one or more alarms. An alarm is an object that correlates one or more detected network events and performs certain actions in response to those events.
Alarms stay in a normal state, usually called Ground. When the alarm manager sees a trigger whose key attributes match those of a pending alarm transition, the manager causes the alarm to move from one state to another. NerveCenter then performs any of the actions associated with that transition.
The Role of an Alarm within a Behavior Model
NerveCenter ignores alarms until they are instantiated. Instantiated alarms have transitioned from Ground into another state.
