Matching a Log Against Event Exclusion

Before SmartEvent generates logs for a specific event, it checks to see if this event candidate attributes are listed in the exclusions table or not. Event Exclusions are defined on the Policy tab > Event Policy > Event Exclusions according to the attributes selected.

If an attribute matches an Event Exclusion, it is discarded by the system (an event is not generated). If not, the SmartEvent Correlation Unit starts to match it against each Event Definition.
