3. Use Table 16-6 to configure your switch event and shutdown log:
4. Use Table 16-7 for a definition of the event classes:
Table 16-6. Event and Shutdown Logs
Log Purpose
Event Log A detailed, ongoing record of events that occur in the switch.
This log is stored in memory and is erased if the system shuts
down or reboots.
Shutdown Log Contains a list of events that occurred before the last switch
shutdown. Because it is stored in nonvolatile memory, this log
is preserved during a switch reboot or shutdown. This list is
designed to help you analyze the events that occurred
immediately prior to a switch shutdown or reset.
Table 16-7. Event Table
Class
Determines whether or not the switch sends
a notification...
Start Upon system start.
System For system events.
Configuration For each configuration change (for example, enabling
and disabling ports).
Temperature Status Of temperature status changes. Temperature status
message could precede a switch shutdown, and are often
critical.
Resource Upon a change in system resources.
Fan Status Of fan status. Fan failures will eventually lead to
overheating the system. Fan Status message provide a
good early warning for a failure that could eventually
cause the switch to shut down.
Service Port
Status/User Port
Status Of Port status changes for service and user ports. Set a
port as either service port/user port from the port
configuration page. The purpose of this feature is to allow
you to use different notification level for critical (service
ports), if desired.
Authentication Failure When the switch detects an authentication failure. This is
a security-related feature used to detect unauthorized
SNMP activity.
Bridge Status Of changes in bridge status.
Switch Fabric Of failures in the switch fabric. These are critical failures
and should be monitored closely.
