3.2.1 Forwarding filter

A forwarding filter is for selecting JP1 events to be sent to another host. Only one such filter can be set in JP1/Base on each agent.

JP1/IM centrally manages the JP1 events occurring on the agents by forwarding them to a manager. Only those JP1 events that need to be managed by a higher-level manager are selected and forwarded. You can specify these target JP1 events in a forwarding filter. A forwarding filter can also be used to reduce JP1 event traffic when the load on a manager needs to be restricted or the network has limited capacity.

Forwarding filters are specific to each instance of JP1/Base. A forwarding settings file can be edited on each agent individually, or you can distribute forwarding setting information in a batch from a manager to the agents.
