It specifies the time periods during which nagios will sent out
notifications.

If you have a time_period defined that covers 24 hours, seven days a
week, and that is set as the notification_period, nagios will send out
notifications whenever they happen.

If you have a time_period defined that excludes Saturday and Sunday and
that is set as the notification_period, nagios will send out
notifications Monday through Friday, but not on Saturday and Sunday (and
they will not be queued anywhere).
