Event Types
Event Types can be divided into two basic groups:
System Events
and
Port Events
. System
Events are related to the overall function of the switch, whereas Port Events are related to the
activity of a specific port.
The EDS supports one relay output. You can configure which relay output is related to which
events. This helps administrators identify the importance of the different events.
