6.8 System Event Log

This page allows the user to decide whether to send the system event log, and select the

mode which the system event log will be sent to client only, server only, or both client

and server. What kind of event log will be issued to the client/server depends on the

selection on the Event Configuration tab. There are five types of event—Device Cold

Start, Device Warm Start, Authentication Failure, X-Ring Topology Change, and Port

Event—available to be issued as the event log.

6.8.1 Syslog

Configuration

Syslog Client Mode: Select the system log mode—Client Only, Server Only, or

Both. ‘Client Only’ means the system event log will only be sent to this interface of the

switch, but on the other hand ‘Server Only’ means the system log will only be sent to

the remote system log server with its IP assigned. If the mode is set in ‘Both’, the

system event log will be sent to the remote server and this interface.

System Log Server IP Address: When the ‘Syslog Mode’ item is set as Server

Only/Both, the user has to assign the system log server IP address to which the log

will be sent.
