Ally IP1000 Notification Message Types
The Ally IP1000 records configuration information and intrusion protection notifications
in the system event log. The table below lists each message that may be generated by
the Ally IP1000. The number and the associated Message Content text will appear in the
event log entry.
The italicized text found below in each Message Content table entry indicates variable
information that will appear in the event log message. For example, in Message Number
6 – Incomplete Connection Timeout, either ‘are’ or ‘are not’ will be displayed, depending
on the “Log Connection Resets” configuration parameter setting.
The Type column assigns a brief name to each message. This name is used to reference
the message in the Ally IP1000 documentation, but does not appear in the actual event
log entry. The Type column also assigns the message to one of four general message
categories: Configuration, Configuration Event, Detection and Information.
Configuration and Configuration Event messages are always written to the event log
while Detection and Information messages can be optionally disabled.
