SysLog Message Report
The unit sends various internal event reports to an external IPv4/IPv6 host running a SysLog daemon
application which logs those events for future use. For SysLog events to be sent, the user must configure
SysLog server IP address by browsing to the unit configuration Web page.
The log events are divided into three categories:
Broadcast IPv4 SysLog events to be intercepted by
any
SysLog server on the local LAN Network
regardless of unit SysLog configuration,
easing locating unit IP on the Network, and reporting major
events such as unit recovery from power failure, etc.
RFC3621 PoE traps to be sent also as SysLog messages, simplifying the readability of such events to
the remote user.
Proprietary SysLog events such as potential security breach whenever remote user tries to access the
unit over Web/Telnet/SSH with incorrect username, potential failures, etc.
6.1 SysLog Message Types
The table below summarizes the various SysLog messages that may be sent by the SysLog Server:
