Information Center Overview
Introduction to Information Center
Acting as the system information hub, information center classifies and manages system information,
offering a powerful support for network administrators and developers in monitoring network
performance and diagnosing network problems.
The following describes the working process of information center:
z
Receives the log, trap, and debugging information generated by each module.
z
Outputs the above information to different information channels according to the user-defined
output rules.
z
Outputs the information to different destinations based on the information channel-to-destination
associations.
To sum up, information center assigns the log, trap and debugging information to the ten information
channels according to the eight severity levels and then outputs the information to different destinations.
The following describes the working process in details.
By default, the information center is enabled. An enabled information center affects the system
performance in some degree due to information classification and output. Such impact becomes more
obvious in the event that there is enormous information waiting for processing.
Classification of system information
