for storing it. Events are classified according to their severity level:
Trace (lowest severity), Message , Warning , Error or Fatal (highest
severity).
The severity at which events are saved in the Event Log is
configurable. Events from the configured severity and higher are
saved and may be displayed upon request. Log history can be
displayed up to the full number of current active events. In the log
an event is defined as active as long as it has not been erased (a
maximum of 1000 events may be displayed). The error log may be
read using TFTP, with remote file name
<SNMP Read
Community>.log (the default SNMP Read Community is public ).
The Event Log Menu includes the following options:
"
Event Log Policy – Determines the minimal severity level. All
events whose severity is equal to or higher than the defined
severity are logged.
Valid values are: Log All (TRC) Level , Message (MSG) Level ,
Warning (WRN) Level , Error (ERR) Level , Fatal (FTL) Level ,
Log None .
The default selection is Fatal (FTL) Level .
"
Display Event Log – Displays how many events are logged and
selects the number of events to be displayed (up to 1000). The
display of each event includes the event time (elapsed time since
last reset), the severity level and a message string. The events
are displayed in descending order, with the most recent event
displayed first.
"
Erase Event Log – Clears the event log.
!
Auto Configuration Parameters – A sub-menu that contains the
parameters related to using the Auto Configuration mechanism. The
Auto Configuration mechanism is intended to simplify the
configuration process through automatic loading of a configuration
file from a TFTP server. The Auto Configuration process is based on
getting from a DHCP server the address of the TFTP server and the
name of the configuration file to be loaded. This information is used
by the unit to initiate a session with the TFTP server, requesting
transfer of the applicable configuration file. Upon completing the
process of loading the new configuration file, the unit will reset
automatically so that the new configuration will take effect.
The following conditions must be met to enable the use of the Auto
Configuration process:
a. The DHCP Option ( see page 2-38 ) in the unit must be
configured to either DHCP Only or Automatic mode to enable
communication with the DHCP server.
b. The unit must be able to communicate with the DHCP server,
according to the configured option of the Access to DHCP
parameter ( see page 2-38 ).
