Event Logs
The Ethernet bridge/router generates event logs for various functions performed by the bridge/router. All of the event logs
are stored in the internal event log file, which is accessible through the Network Events menu.
Certain event logs are classified as alarms because they are deemed to be of higher urgency. Alarm logs are indicated by an
asterisk (“*”) at the start of the alarm text and are printed on the ALARM line on the menu system as well as being stored in
the event log. Alarms are listed in the second part of this appendix.
All WAN-link-related events include the link number in the event log. All remote site-related events include the remote site
alias in the event log.
All LCP events are either link based or remote site based depending on whether frame relay is disabled or enabled.
Event
logs:
Capture off
Generated when link trace capture is turned off.
Completed BCP negotiation with <remote site alias>
Generated when the Bridging Control Protocol negotiation has been completed with the remote site device
associated with the stated remote site profile. Once BCP negotiations are complete, IP routing may take
place between the two routers.
Completed CCP negotiation with <remote site alias>
Generated when the Compression Control Protocol negotiation has been completed with the remote site device
associated with the stated remote site profile. Once CCP negotiations are complete, IP routing may take place
between the two routers.
Completed IPCP negotiation with <remote site alias>
Generated when the Internet Protocol Control Protocol negotiation has been completed with the remote site
device associated with the stated remote site profile. Once IPCP negotiations are complete, IP routing may
take place between the two routers.
Completed IPXCP negotiation with <remote site alias>
Generated when the Internet Packet Exchange Control Protocol negotiation has been completed with the
remote site device associated with the stated remote site profile. Once IPXCP negotiations are complete,
IPX routing may take place between the two routers.
Configuration restored
Generated during a warm start when a configuration is successfully restored from non-volatile RAM.
Connection attempt to <IP address>
Generated when the bridge/router attempts a Telnet connection. The IP address of the target bridge/router is
specified.
