Figure 435: Viewing log messages
Customizing the display of log messages
By customizing the display of log messages, you can view certain parts or different
formats of log messages. For example, log messages can be viewed in Formatted or Raw
view. In Formatted view, you can customize the columns, or filter log messages. In Raw
view, the log message appears as it would in the log file.
Log Type Select the type of log you want to view. Some log files, such as the traffic log,
cannot be stored to memory due to the volume of information logged.
Current Page By default, the first page of the list of items is displayed. The total number of
pages displays after the current page number. For example, if 3/54 appears,
you are currently viewing page 3 of 54 pages.
To view pages, select the left and right arrows to display the first, previous,
next, or last page.
To view a specific page, enter the page number in the field and then press
Enter.

columns.
When log messages are displayed in Formatted view, you can customize the
columns, or filter log messages.
