17.2 Log Settings
You can configure the Prestige’s general log settings in one location.
Click the LOGS in the navigation panel and then the Log Settings tab to open the Log Settings screen.
Use the Log Settings screen to configure to where the Prestige is to send logs; the schedule for when the
Prestige is to send the logs and which logs and/or immediate alerts the Prestige to send.
An alert is a type of log that warrants more serious attention. They include system errors, attacks (access
control) and attempted access to blocked web sites or web sites with restricted web features such as cookies,
active X and so on. Some categories such as System Errors consist of both logs and alerts. You may
differentiate them by their color in the View Log screen. Alerts display in red and logs display in black.
Alerts are e-mailed as soon as they happen. Logs may be e-mailed as soon as the log is full (see Log
Schedule). Selecting many alert and/or log categories (especially Access Control) may result in many e-
mails being sent
