Broadcast alert? Send message to every system in the LAN? What protocol do you want to use for this?
Regards

Just a network broadcast using IP wheer you can select the reciepients usually by browsing the domain for machines that will recieve the alert.

So, it can be implemented by using external program. Add "Execute external program" action and specify command line like "NET SEND /DOMAIN:name_of_domain message". Novell Netware client has similar program: SEND "message" [TO] user or group
