RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Windows Event Log Monitoring

[Mike Patterson]

Hi Marc,   I think WUG has to go look for the new events via WMI every polling interval. I don’t think the machine sends the events to WUG.  Hopefully someone will know more.   Michael Patterson (207)324-8805 x222 [EMAIL PROTECTED]       -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Wittke, Marc Sent: Tuesday, July 13, 2004 6:35 AM To: What's Up Gold Forum (E-Mail) Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Windows Event Log Monitoring   Hi group,   does anybody know how the windows event log monitoring is working? in case: we're monitoring systems behind a firewall, and we realized a huge amount of inbound traffic for our WuG-system. Maybe WuG configures the machine behind the firewall similar to snmp-traps to /send/ the event log entries to our machine (via WMI)? This would explain the absence of windows log events if the firewall is filtering every inbound traffic except snmp traps.   regards marc
