This page allows you to determine how time should be displayed on
the Event Log. In addition, you
can determine what severity level is significant enough to display
an event.
Setting
How Should Time Generally be Displayed?
Decide whether the events in the Event Log are displayed as system
uptime or wall-clock time. If you select system uptime, the events
are displayed either since the boot or since the last time the Event
Log was displayed. If you select wall-clock time,
the events are displayed in a YY:MM:DD:HH:MM:SS format. If no time
has been set on the device (either manually or by a time server),
the time display appears as uptime regardless of this selection.
How Should Event Elapsed (Non-Wall-Clock) Time be Displayed?
Choose to display event time since the last boot-up of the device
or the time that has elapsed since the event occurred.
Severity Level at Which to Display Events
When an event occurs, it may be displayed immediately on the console,
on the console log, or on the GUI log for read purposes only. The
event may also be recorded. (You control display and recording of
events through the Event Handling
Setup page.) Use the pull-down menus to choose one of the sixteen
severity levels.
Alerts indicate events of which an administrator specifically
requested to be informed. Warnings indicate that a failure has occurred.
Information is simply notification of some sort of action, not of
a fatal nature (i.e., the port has been turned off, the rate setting
has been changed, etc.)
