15 The event log
15.1 What is the Event Log?
Many Westermo products automatically maintain a log of certain types of event in a pseudo fi le called
EVENTLOG.TXT. The contents of the log can be viewed via the
Status > Event Log
web page or
using by using the
type
command. In either case, the most recent event appears at the top of the
log with successively older log entries appearing further down.
The example below shows a small section of a log:

The EVENTLOG.TXT pseudo- fi le acts as a circular buffer so that when the space available for the log
is full, new entries are written at the start of the buffer overwriting the oldest entries.
Each entry in the log normally consists of a single line containing the date, time and a brief description
of the event. In some cases it may also identify:
♦ the type/number of the protocol instance that generated the message (e.g. PPP 0) ♦ a reason code
♦ additional information such as an X.25 address or ISDN telephone number
The speci fi c events that generate a log entry are pre-de fi ned and cannot be altered. These are listed
in the table below along with the name of the fi rmware module that generates the event message and
any additional information that may be included in the log.
