You can use the Diagnostics pages to test, reboot, and view log and configuration information on the
HPE OfficeConnect 1850 series switch.
Buffered Log
The log messages that the switch generates in response to events, faults, errors, and configuration
changes are stored locally on the switch in the RAM (cache). This collection of log files is called the
buffered log. When the buffered log file reaches the maximum size, the oldest message is deleted from
the RAM when a new message is added. If the system restarts, all messages are cleared. The Log
page displays the 100 most recent system messages, such as configuration failures and user ses-
sions. The newest log entry, by default, is displayed at the bottom of the list.
To display the Log page, click

NOTE:
If more than 100 messages accumulate, their Log Index numbers continue to increment beyond 100
and the oldest entries are deleted (for example, if 200 log entries were generated since the system
was last restarted or the log file was cleared, then the log file would display entries 101 to 200).
