The 【Alarm Gateway】 is a system specifically designed to integrate the abnormal notification functions between applications and servers.
Its main purpose is to ensure that when applications encounter situations requiring alerts or alarm cancellations, these messages can be quickly and effectively transmitted to the monitoring center.

Specifically, the 【Alarm Gateway】 primarily operates through a program called 【wdogc_almsks】, which runs on the client-side.
When this program is executed, an alarm name can be specified and sent to the WATCHDOG host via TCP socket.

The WATCHDOG host will receive this alarm name through a dedicated receiving program,
and based on this alarm name, it will perform corresponding actions such as sending an alert or canceling an alert.
This way, applications do not need to interact directly with the WATCHDOG host but achieve this through the 【Alarm Gateway】 intermediary layer.

Additionally, the 【Alarm Gateway】 provides multiple parameter settings to meet different needs, such as setting the repetition of alarm events, the number of error retries, specifying the IP and port of the WATCHDOG host, and specifying the message content to be sent.


Core Functions:
➢ Abnormal Notifications:
When applications encounter abnormal situations that need immediate notification, the 【Alarm Gateway】 ensures that alert or alarm cancellation messages are promptly delivered to the monitoring center.
➢ Monitoring Integration:
Integrate applications into the monitoring system, allowing system administrators to monitor the application operation from different perspectives, effectively managing the information environment.

System Specifications Overview:
➢ Detection Purpose: Integrate project applications into the monitoring system, ensuring that important alerts can be handled immediately.
➢ Monitoring Target: Perform specialized monitoring for project names.
➢ Real-time Information: Provide real-time updates of normal and alert statuses.
➢ Information Collection: Record the time points of alert issuance and cancellation, as well as related messages.
➢ Emergency Handling: Automatically notify and execute pre-set programs to respond quickly when an alert is triggered.
➢ Alarm Thresholds: Define the trigger conditions for alerts based on received messages.
