Overview<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Device Monitoring and Alerting allows you to use predefined rule templates to configure monitoring rules based on your needs. Alerts are generated in near real time once the monitoring rules are enabled. You can view and manage the generated alerts from the Alerts console in the JumpCloud Admin Portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      To access the Alerts console:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
      1. Login to the JumpCloud Admin Portal<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. To view the Alerts console, you can do any of the following:\n
         \n
         • Go to Insights<\/strong> > Alerts<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
         • On the Home page, scroll down to the Open Alerts<\/strong> widget and click Go To Alerts Dashboard<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
         • Click the Alerts<\/strong> (bell) icon on the top navigation bar.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

           You will be redirected to the Alerts console which consists of two dashboards:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

           \n
           • Alerts<\/strong>: You can view, monitor, and manage all alerts here. See Use the Alerts Dashboard<\/a> to learn more.
             This dashboard consists of four tabs that display alerts based on their status:\n
             \n
             • Open:<\/strong> Displays all open alerts that need your attention.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
             • Acknowledged:<\/strong> Displays all alerts that have been marked acknowledged.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
             • Resolved:<\/strong> Displays all alerts that have been marked resolved.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
             • All<\/strong>: Displays all alerts. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
               \n
               • Rules<\/strong>: You can create new rules, monitor all the rules created within the organization, and manage the status of each rule here. See Use the Rules Dashboard<\/a> to learn more.
                 You can:\n
                 \n
                 • Click Rule+ <\/strong>and create new rules.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
                 • Use the toggle button to Enable<\/strong> or Disable<\/strong> a specific rule.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                 • Use the Actions<\/strong> button to select and enable\/disable multiple rules at a time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                   You will not see any alerts until you configure some monitoring rules. You can use the predefined rule templates to quickly configure some rules as per your requirements. Make sure to specify precise conditions while configuring the rules to receive timely alerts. See Configure Rules for Device Monitoring and Alerting<\/a> to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                   Tip:<\/strong> \n

                   A red dot on the Alerts<\/strong> (bell) icon indicates there are open alerts in the system.<\/p>\n <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

                   Note:<\/strong> \n

                   \n
                   • Previously, certain alerts were accessible through the bell icon in the top right corner of the interface. See Understand Legacy Alerts<\/a> to learn more. With the new alerting system in place, these older alerts will no longer appear in the main alert dashboard. Instead, they have been moved to a dedicated page called Legacy Alerts.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                     \n
                     • You can access this page by clicking Legacy Alerts<\/strong> in the top right corner of the Alerts dashboard. This page retains the original content of these alerts for your reference.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
                       \n
                       • While Legacy Alerts remain accessible, we do not plan to update or expand upon them in future as we focus on the new and improved alerting system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
