Enabling or
Disabling the
Event Logs
This procedure explains how to enable or disable the event logs on the
switch. If you disable the logs, the AT-S63 management software does not
store events in its logs and does not send events to any syslog servers.
The default setting for the event logs is enabled.
Note
Allied Telesyn recommends setting the switch’s date and time if you
enable the event logs. Otherwise, event messages will not have the
correct time and date. For instructions, refer to “Setting the System
Time” on page 67.
To enable or disable the event logs, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.
The System Administration menu is shown in Figure 4 on page 54.
2. From the System Administration menu, type 8 to select Event Log.
