or go to System Status -> Event Log .
14.3. Controlling what is Logged
14.3.1. About Event levels
All Events have an associated level in the range 1-3, with level 1 considered the most important. The
table below shows the levels assigned to different events:
Level Assigned Events
Level 1
(User) High-level events such as registration requests and call attempts. Easily
human readable. For example:
call attempt/connected/disconnected
registration attempt/accepted/rejected
Level 2
(Protocol) Logs of protocol messages sent and received (H.323, LDAP, etc) excluding
noisy messages such as H.460.18 keep-alives and H.245 video fast-
updates. . .
Level 3
(Protocol Verbose) Protocol keep-alives are suppressed at Level 2. At logging level 3, keep-
alives are also logged.
14.3.2. Setting the log level
You can control which events are logged by the Gatekeeper by specifying the log level. All events with a
level numerically equal to and lower than the specified logging level are recorded in the event log.
To set the log level, either issue the command:
xConfiguration Log Level: <1..3>
or go to System Configuration -> System and in the Logging section, select the desired level from the Log
Level drop-down menu.
By default, logging is set to level 1.
