Notifications Settings

In the Notifications tab, notification triggers can be set for every object. When using these settings for a probe, group, or device, they will be inherited to all sensors on these objects. Available notification trigger options are the same for all objects.

Comments

On the Comments tab you can enter free text for each object. You can use this function for documentation purposes or to leave information for other users.

Click Save to save your settings. If you change tabs or use the main menu, all changes to the settings will be lost!

History

In the History tab all changes in the settings of an object are logged with a timestamp, the name of the PRTG user who made the change, and a message. The history log retains the last 100 entries.
