Auto-Acknowledgement of alerts

Using the Auto-Acknowledgement feature, you can set up the Manager to automatically acknowledge alerts based on the severity levels of the corresponding attacks. Note that the Sensor plays its usual role here. That is, it detects the attack and sends an alert and the takes the other configured response actions. If you enable this feature, the Manager automatically acknowledges the alerts for the specified attacks. You can also create new acknowledgement rules based on which repeated attacks are automatically acknowledged. This prevents your Dashboard from being flooded with information regarding insignificant alerts. The details of the auto-acknowledged attacks do not reflect in the Dashboard. You can use the Attack Log page to view the acknowledged alerts.
