Documentation for Axxon Next 3.5.1. Documentation for other versions of Axxon Next is [available too].

This automatic rule allows starting an external program on computers that are running Axxon Next Client.

The external program is started on all Clients that are connected to the domain.

Attention

The external program is not started on a computer that is an Axxon Next Server, if the Client is not running on the computer when the detection tool is triggered.

To launch an external program on all running clients when a detection tool is triggered:

  1. Create a Launch external program on Client automatic rule.
  2. In the Folder field, specify the path to the executable file of the program that you want to launch. You can specify a network path here, if you want.
  3. To configure additional parameters for launching the program, click the plus button and enter the necessary command-line arguments.
  4. Click Apply to save the changes.

Configuration for launching an external program on running clients is now complete.

Attention!

By using this automatic rule, you can configure audio notifications on remote Clients. To do so, on the Clients, start any program that can play back an audio file. In the startup parameters, specify the notification file.

For example, let us consider Windows Media Player. For audio notifications on remote Clients via Windows Media Player, set the following parameters:

Path to the player: "C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe";

Startup parameters:  -vvv "<Path to notification file>"

The notification file can have either a local address on the Client or a network address.

An example configuration is shown in the figure:
