About the preconfigured notifications

You can set a damper period for notifications. The damper period specifies the
time that must pass before the notification condition is checked for new data.
When a notification condition has a damper period, the notification is only issued
on the first occurrence of the trigger condition within that period. For example,
suppose a large-scale virus attack occurs, and that there is a notification condition
configured to send an email whenever viruses infect five computers on the network.
If you set a one hour damper period for that notification condition, the server
sends only one notification email each hour during the attack.

Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager provides preconfigured notifications
conditions for administrators. You can customize these preconfigured notifications
to meet your particular needs. For example, you can add filters to limit a trigger
condition only to specific computers. Or you can set notifications to take specific
actions when they are triggered.
By default, some of these conditions are enabled when you install Symantec
Endpoint Protection Manager. Notification conditions that are enabled by default
are configured to log to the server and send email to system administrators.
