System Log
System Log
This option enables the registration routine
of system log (syslog) messages. By default it is disabled.
•
Remote Log
Enables the syslog remote sending
function. System log messages are sent to a remote
server, which is specified in the
Remote Log IP Address
and
Remote Log Port
fields.
-
Remote Log IP Address
The host IP address that
receives syslog messages. Properly configure the
remote host to receive syslog protocol messages.
-
Remote Log Port
The TCP/IP port that receives syslog
messages.
514
is the default port for the commonly
used system message logging utilities.
Every logged message contains at least a system time and
host name. Usually a specific service name that generates
the system event is also specified within the message.
Messages from different services have different contexts
and different levels of detail. Usually error, warning, or
informational system service messages are reported;
however, more detailed debug level messages can also
be reported. The more detailed the system messages
reported, the greater the volume of log messages
generated.
Device Discovery
Discovery
Enables device discovery, so the airFiber AF-5
can be discovered by other Ubiquiti devices through the
Discovery
tool.
CDP
Enables Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP)
communications, so the airFiber AF-5 can send out CDP
packets to share its information.
