Remote syslog
Use this setting to enable or disable this feature. It is disabled by default. When enabled,
messages of the selected
Severity
level or higher are sent to the configured syslog server.
When disabled, a limited number of these messages is stored locally and can be viewed in the
Events
section of the
System log
page.
Syslog server
Specify the IP address or DNS name of the remote log server.
Syslog port
The syslog process uses logical port 514 by default. HP recommends that you keep this default.
If you specify a different port number, ensure that the port number is not being used by another
protocol on your network, and that your syslog server is also configured to use that port.
Events
The
Events
section of the
System log
page shows real-time system events on the HP 501,
such as DHCP address assignments to the HP 501. The log shows the date the event occurred,
its severity level, the software program or process that caused the event message, and the
message text.
You can click
Refresh
to display the most recent data from the HP 501, or
Clear All
to
remove all entries from the list.
RSSI log
The HP 501 can determine the strength of the wireless signal received from an upstream AP.
Administrators can use this value, called received signal strength indicator (RSSI), when
determining the optimal physical location and configuration of APs and to diagnose network
traffic issues.
Up to 1024 RSSI values can be stored in the RSSI log. When the log is full, new entries
overwrite older entries. You can configure the HP 501 to send certain log entries to a Syslog
server for permanent storage or further analysis.
