Web (HTTP) Notifications

You can set up Web notifications to be sent one or more individuals or email groups.

• Types of Event—When you set up alerts, you can globally specify which alerts are sent to Web servers. You can also specify which alert types a specific Web server receives. For a list and description of each event type, see About Events.
• HTTP Server Provider—Specify an HTTP server provider type:
  • Aruba
  • Generic
• Notification Delivery Frequency—You can specify the delivery frequency both globally and for individual Web servers. When you set an individual's delivery frequency it overrides the global delivery frequency setting.

  FireEye recommends that you provide per event notifications to all persons monitoring event alerts. This ensures that these persons receive the alerts as soon as they occur.

  For more information on Notification Delivery Frequency, see Notification Delivery Frequency

• Notification Format—You can specify the format and level of depth for each notification. For more information on the notification format, see Notification Format
• Alerts Update Notification—You can provide an update whenever Alert Notifications are received by the server.
• Server Authentication—You can enable authentication if the server requires authentication. Authentication will be based on the user and password settings you entered when you add the HTTP server.
• Connecting to Server Using SSL—You can use SSL to connect to the HTTP server.
