When creating or modifying rules, it may not always be obvious when a rule is correctly specified. To guide you through correlation rule creation, short explanations are provided at the top of the pane.

Information presented in red indicates that there is an error or omission in the correlation rule. Follow the guidance to correct the error. If it proves difficult to create an error-free rule, delete bindings and use the Rebind button to create a binding between the cause and the symptom. The rebind automatically uses the shortest path between the cause and the symptom.

Information presented in blue indicates that the rule is correctly specified and serves as a reminder to save the modified rule.
