13.3 Log Setting
These screens control log messages and alerts. A log message stores the information for viewing
(for example, in the
Monitor > View Log
screen) or regular e-mailing later, and an alert is e-
mailed immediately. Usually, alerts are used for events that require more serious attention, such as
system errors and attacks.
The NWA/WAC provides a system log and supports e-mail profiles and remote syslog servers. The
system log is available on the
View Log
screen, the e-mail profiles are used to mail log messages
to the specified destinations, and the other four logs are stored on specified syslog servers.
The
Log Setting
tab also controls what information is saved in each log. For the system log, you
can also specify which log messages are e-mailed, where they are e-mailed, and how often they are
e-mailed.
For alerts, the
Log Setting
screen controls which events generate alerts and where alerts are e-
mailed.
The
Log Setting
screen provides a summary of all the settings. You can use the
Edit
Log Setting
screen to maintain the detailed settings (such as log categories, e-mail addresses, server names,
etc.) for any log. Alternatively, if you want to edit what events is included in each log, you can also
use the
Active Log Summary
screen to edit this information for all logs at the same time.
