Alert Throttling limits how frequently Dotcom-Monitor sends alert notifications while a monitoring device remains in the same error state. This helps prevent excessive notifications during prolonged outages.
For example, if multiple monitoring devices check every minute and remain in a Down state, Dotcom-Monitor would normally send an alert for each failed check. By enabling throttling, you can reduce the number of repeated alerts sent during the outage.
To configure alert throttling, open the monitoring device settings and navigate to the Alerts tab. For more details, see Configuring Device Alerting Settings.
