An Example of Using Facility Numbers
The syslog system administrator sets up a server called “syslogger” to handle
log messages from two CS boxes. One CS is located in São Paulo, Brazil, and
the other in Fremont, California. The syslog server’s administrator wants to
aggregate messages from the São Paulo CS into the
local1
facility, and to
aggregate messages from Fremont CS into the
local2
facility.
On “syslogger” the system administrator has configured the system logging
utility to write messages from the
local1
facility to the
/var/log/
saopaulo-config
file and the messages from the
local
2 facility to the
/
var/log/fremont-config
file. If you were in Fremont and identifying the
syslog server using the Web Manager, according to this example, you would
select the facility number Local2 from the “Facility Number” pull-down menu
on the Syslog form.
Administering Users of Connected Devices
This sections provides a list of task that an CS administrator can perform to
enable access to connected devices.
Planning Access to Connected Devices
The CS administrator needs to perform specific tasks to setup and configure
user access to the connected servers, IPDUs, or other devices. An advanced
planning can minimize issues that may arise during software configuration.
Some of the planning steps includes the following:
• Create a list of servers or devices to connect to the serial ports.
• Create a list of users with the type of access each user requires.
• Create a matrix of users and required access to each connected server or
device.
• Create meaningful aliases to assign to port numbers.
• List all devices that need to be connected to IPDUs and the users who
need to access them.
