### Configuring Monitoring Counters To configure event notifications: In the RAS Console, select the Administration category and then click the Notifications tab. Select an event and specify a value in the Parameters column (right-click an event and click Edit). Note that with some events, the Parameter field is not used and is disabled. In the Notification Interval field, specify the interval (in minutes) at which the notifications will be emailed to the administrator. Please note that the mailbox should be configured in the RAS Console for the outgoing email functionality to work. This mailbox is usually set up when you run the RAS Console for the first time and then use the Start category to set up your first RAS environment. If you omitted this step, you can set up a mailbox here. The mailbox setup procedure is described in the section that follows this one.
