Policies 60
6-4-4 Event Policy Categories
Categories are used to group related Event Policies to speed up processing. For example, we can create a
category related to all Device Handler EMS Events. This would mean that all policies in the Device Handler
category will only process the Device Handler related events and will ignore the rest. The category is decided by
using one or more pass values in the incoming event.
The Manage Categories button on the Event Policies dialog box can be used to create Event Policy Categories.
These categories can be used to group policies.
Follow the steps below to create Event Policy categories and to add policies to an existing category.
1. Click on the Event Policies option in the Manage menu.
