Use [labels](ref:alert-labels) and label matchers to link alert rules to [notification policies](ref:notification-policies) and [silences](ref:silences). This allows for a flexible way to manage your alert instances, specify which policy should handle them, and which alerts to silence.

## Mute timings vs silences
[Mute timings](ref:shared-mute-timings) and [silences](ref:shared-silences) are distinct methods to suppress notifications. They do not prevent alert rules from being evaluated or stop alert instances from appearing in the user interface; they only prevent notifications from being created.
The following table highlights the key differences between mute timings and silences.
| | Mute timing | Silence |
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Setup** | Created and then added to notification policies | Matches alerts using labels to determine whether to silence them |
| **Period** | Uses time interval definitions that can repeat periodically | Has a fixed start and end time |
