Monitoring | Filterable Event Log

This screen shows the events in the current event log, lets you filter and display events by various
criteria, and lets you manage the event log file. For troubleshooting any system difficulty, or just to
examine details of system activity, consult the event log first.

The VPN 3002 records events in nonvolatile memory, thus the event log persists even if the system is
powered off. It holds 256 events, and it wraps when it is full (that is, entry 257 overwrites entry 1, etc.).
Use the scroll controls (if present) to display more events in the log.

To configure event handling, see the Configuration | System | Events screens.

To Get, Save, or Clear the event log file, you must have Access Rights to Read/Write Files. See the
Administration | Administrators | Modify Properties screen.
