Event Log: Configuration Options
 

Disposition of Events (by Severity Level)

When a severity level is selected, all higher-priority severity levels are also selected.

Display on Event Log

Determine for each severity level whether you want the event displayed on the event log by placing a check mark in the check box. Events displayed on the event log are available on the event log page.

Notify via SNMP/Syslog Trap

Determine for each severity level whether you want to be notified by an SNMP/Syslog trap when the event occurs. The notification occurs when a check mark appears in the check box.

Record for SNMP/Syslog History Table

Determine for each severity level whether you want to record the event in the SNMP/Syslog history table. The event is recorded when a check mark appears in the check box.

Display on Telnet/SSH Monitor

Determine for each severity level whether you want to display the event on the Telnet/SSH monitor. The event displays on the monitor when a check mark appears in the check box.

Time Stamp Format for Future Events

Choose the time format in which you want the event time stamp information saved. The three supported time stamp formats are as follows:

  • System Uptime - The length of time the system was operational when the event occurred. Initially, this time is displayed as number of seconds, growing to minutes, days, and weeks. For example, 1w0d represents 1 week and 0 days.
  • Global Standard Time - The time of day the event occurred in UTC time recorded as Month dd hh:mm:ss.usec and 3-letter time zone (UTC). The system clock must be set for this time stamp to work.
  • Local Time - The time of day the event occurred in the local time zone recorded as Month DD hh:mm:ss.usec and 3-letter time zone. The system clock must be set for this time stamp to work.

Event Log Size

Determine the size of the buffer you want established for logging commands. The more memory you assign to the log, the less memory that is available to route packets.

History Table Size

Determine the maximum number of syslog messages that you want stored in the router's history table.
