# RuleEngine Configuration

RuleEngine Configuration simplifies the entire process of extracting the required information from the event logs. It is a rule engine that defines "Actions" for each category of reports, parses the event log and pulls out the required information based on the input rules configured. These actions are a collection of one or more "Rule Groups" that define a set of filtering rules for extracting the data from the logs. Once the filtering rules are satisfied as configured in the action, the required data is successfully extracted from the logs in a much more convenient way than the conventional way of reading form the logs. The "Rule Groups" can be configured to either satisfy all or any of the filtering rules. An action can be associated with multiple "Rule Groups" as well.

The various categories with the pre-configured actions include the following:

- Mailbox Logon Category

- Mailbox Permission Change Category

- Mailbox Properties Change Category

- Organization Change Category
