Configure
The
Configure
menu consists of three functions:
Add, Edit
and
Delete.
Add
Select the
Add
function when you need to add a new B064-Series
KVM Switch to the list of units that the Log Server records events for.
Note: You must first add a B064-Series KVM Switch via the
Add
function before the Log Server can start recording its events.
Edit
Select the
Edit
function to modify the information pertaining to an existing B064-Series KVM Switch. To edit an existing B064-Series KVM
Switch, select it from the list and open the
Edit
function from the
Configure
drop-down menu. A dialog box will appear showing the exact
information that was entered for the B064-Series KVM Switch when it was added using the
Add
function. Edit this information and click
OK
.
Delete
To delete a B064-Series KVM Switch, simply select it from the list and open the
Delete
function. A dialog box will appear which will display the
B064-Series KVM Switch information and ask you to click
OK
to delete it. If you want to remove it from the Log Server, click
OK

Descriptions of the fields in this dialog box are shown in the table below:

communicate with the Log Server. (See
Advanced Network Management Settings
section for details.)
Port
Key in the port number that was specified in the ANMS tab of the OSD Device Management Notebook. If the port
number differs between the B064-Series KVM Switch OSD and the Log Server, the two will not be able to communicate
with each other.
Description
This field is provided so that you can enter in additional information that will help differentiate this B064-Series KVM
Switch from the rest of the devices the Log Server is recording information for.
Limit
This specifies the number of days that an event is kept in the Log Server’s database before it can be deleted. To remove
all events that have passed the expiration date set in this field, use the
Maintenance
function in the
Events
menu.

Add
