Orion Feature » Advanced Alerting


  • Define device dependencies
  • Configure network alerts for correlated events (alert if X and Y are true)
  • Set up network alerts for sustained conditions (alert if Y is true for more than 5 minutes)
  • Escalate network alerts automatically
  • Ensure you don’t receive unnecessary alerts and prevent floods of useless messages

Orion Network Performance Monitor (NPM) enables you to quickly and easily configure powerful network alert engines to respond to hundreds of different network scenarios, including multiple condition checks. These network alerts help you recognize and correct issues before your users experience performance degradation or availability issues.  With alerting support for correlated events and sustained conditions, Orion NPM ensures that you don’t get paged at 3am unless there is a critical issue.

Additionally, Orion NPM can automatically escalate network alerts until a problem is resolved.

Orion NPM includes more than sixteen built-in network alert delivery methods and responses, including email, pages, SNMP traps, text-to-speech, syslog messages, and the launching of an external application.


"Orion is just as scalable and flexible as many other large, expensive framework solutions such as HP OpenView, but requires significantly less effort to use and maintain."

— Ronald, Shaul, Director of Technology, Smart City Networks
