TCP/IP Overview 96

The syslog server may not receive all syslog events from the HP Jetdirect
projector server:

UDP does not guarantee delivery of messages.

The HP Jetdirect projector server attempts to eliminate duplicate messages
(to minimize unnecessary network traffic).

The volume of messages sent by the HP Jetdirect projector server is
configurable.

Methods to configure HP Jetdirect syslog parameters include BOOTP, DHCP,
the embedded Web server, and management software. The syslog
configuration command or parameter entries may vary depending on the
method used. For more information, see the applicable sections in this guide.

Selected syslog parameters on the HP Jetdirect projector server are listed in

Table A.4

HP Jetdirect Syslog Parameters

Item

Description

Syslog Server
IP address

IP address of a syslog server for sending syslog messages. If
zero (0.0.0.0) or not specified, syslog messages are disabled.

Syslog Maximum
Messages

The number of syslog messages that can be sent by the
HP Jetdirect projector server on a per-minute basis, from 0 to
1000. This parameter helps to control the syslog file size. The
default is 10 messages per minute. If 0, the number of syslog
messages is not restricted.

Syslog Priority

A method for filtering syslog messages that are sent to the
syslog server. The range is 0 through 8, with 0 the most specific
and 8 the most general. Only messages that are lower than the
specified filter level (or higher in priority) are reported. The
default is 8, messages of all priorities are sent. If 0, all syslog
messages are disabled.

Syslog Facility

A code used to identify the source facility of a message (for
example, to identify the source of selected messages during
troubleshooting). By default, the HP Jetdirect projector server
uses local user values of local0 through local7 to isolate
individual or groups of projector servers.
