Centralized Logs

This chapter contains information about configuring general log settings and viewing the

HomeSafe’s logs. Refer to the appendices for example log message explanations.

15.1 View Log

The web configurator allows you to look at all of the HomeSafe’s logs in one location.

Click the LOGS in the navigation panel to open the View Log screen.

Use the View Log screen to see the logs for the categories that you selected in the Log Settings
screen (see section 15.2). Options include logs about system maintenance, system errors, access
control, allowed or blocked web sites, blocked web features (such as ActiveX controls, java and
cookies), attacks (such as DoS) and IPSec.

Log entries in red indicate system error logs. The log wraps around and deletes the old entries
after it fills. Click a column heading to sort the entries. A triangle indicates ascending or
descending sort order.
