MX 65 setup Security Event Alerts

[cmiarshvac]

Am I missing the location to enable an alert for Security Events?  The Network Wide -> Configure->Alerts doesn't specify any Security Events.  Is this not available on an MX65 or similar device?

You probably don't have the security license or if you do, didn't enable it.  Try that and check again.

I do have the Advanced Security license enabled. Had to double check 🙂

There are not many security related alerts.  Can you see ones like this malware one?

[BrandonS · Accepted solution]

That's true about limited alerts.  Assuming you have the license and IPS/IDS and AMP enabled you can send security events to your own syslog server or a cloud one like papertrailapp.com. That is what I do-

From there you can trigger email, SMS alerts or hook into Slack, Glip, etc.

I do have both of the Malware alerts available it the Alerts section.
