Alert Settings
Alert settings control the general behavior and configuration of alerts, including:
•
The RFC 2822 Header From: when sending alerts (enter an address or use the
default “alert@<hostname>”). You can also set this via the CLI, using the
default “alert@<hostname>”). You can also set this via the CLI, using the
alertconfig -> from
command.
•
The initial number of seconds to wait before sending a duplicate alert.
•
The maximum number of seconds to wait before sending a duplicate alert.
•
The status of AutoSupport (enabled or disabled).

receive System alerts at the Information level.
Sending Duplicate Alerts
You can specify the initial number of seconds to wait before AsyncOS will send
a duplicate alert. If you set this value to 0, duplicate alert summaries are not sent
and instead, all duplicate alerts are sent without any delay (this can lead to a large
amount of email over a short amount of time). The number of seconds to wait
between sending duplicate alerts (alert interval) is increased after each alert is
sent. The increase is the number of seconds to wait plus twice the last interval. So
a 5 second wait would have alerts sent at 5 seconds, 15, seconds, 35 seconds, 75
seconds, 155 seconds, 315 seconds, etc.

Eventually, the interval could become quite large. You can set a cap on the number
of seconds to wait between intervals via the maximum number of seconds to wait
before sending a duplicate alert field. For example, if you set the initial value to
5 seconds, and the maximum value to 60 seconds, alerts would be sent at 5
seconds, 15 seconds, 35 seconds, 60 seconds, 120 seconds, etc.
