Triggering a Policy Based on Event Count

You can configure an event policy to be triggered if an event or set of events occurs a specified number of times within a specified time period.

This do this, include the optional trigger statement at the [edit event-options policy policy-name within seconds] hierarchy level:



[event-options policy policy-name within seconds]

trigger (on number | after number | until number);

The software counts the number of times the triggering event occurs. A triggering event can be any event configured at the [edit event-options policy policy-name events] hierarchy level. You can configure the following options:

after number—The policy is executed when the number of matching events received equals number plus one.
on number—The policy is executed when the number of matching events received equals number.
until number—The policy is executed each time a matching event is received and stops being executed when the number of matching events received equals number.

For configuration examples, see Triggering a Policy Based on Event Count.
