As you can see on the flowchart, events can come from various sources: polling processes (status, configuration, discovery, and data collection), SNMP traps, and directly from external applications via client library. All incoming events go to single event queue for processing. A special process, called ''Event Processor'', takes events from the queue one by one and matches them against Event Processing Policy. As a result, alarms may be generated and actions may be executed. If event has ''write lo log'' attribute set, it is written to NetXMS event log at the end of processing. | As you can see on the flowchart, events can come from various sources: polling processes (status, configuration, discovery, and data collection), SNMP traps, and directly from external applications via client library.
