3.6 Syslog
Syslog messages are simple text messages transmitted to a
syslog server using UDP.
Linux OS regularly have a syslog daemon installed, e.g. sys-
log-ng. For Windows there are some freeware tools available.
On following events,
EPM
will send a syslog message:
- Booting up
- Switching off
- Activation/deactivation of syslog
- Load more than 10 A, load again less than 10 A
You can fi nd more information about confi guration of Syslog in
chapter 3.3 or have a look at

MIBs
All information, that can be requested or changed, the so called
„Managed Objects“, are descripted in „Management Information
Bases“ (MIBs).
There are three MIBs, which can be requested from
EPM
:
„system“, „interface“ and „gadsepm“
„system“ and „interface“ are standardised MIBs (MIB-II).
„gadsepm“ (GUDEADS-EPM-MIB=“gadsepm“) was created
especially for
EPM
.
At least, there are so called Object Identifi ers (OID) subordi-
nated to those three structures. An OID describes the location of
an information inside a MIB.
