Configure Custom Incident Attributes to Enrich an Incident Configuration (Node Settings) (SNMP Trap Incidents)

The Custom Incident Attributes (CIAs) tab enables you to specify additional CIAs to be saved with an incoming incident. The persisted data might then be used as an argument to an action for the incident.

When creating a CIA for an incident configuration, you can specify any of the following values:

• Custom Attribute on the source node
• Custom Attribute on the interface (source object)

You also specify the Custom Incident Attribute name that will store this information.
