Event Log
Use the
Event Log
page to display the event log, which is used to hold error messages for catastrophic events.
After the event is logged and the updated log is saved in flash memory, the switch will be reset. The log
can hold at least 2,000 entries (the actual number depends on the platform and OS), and is erased when an
attempt is made to add an entry after it is full. The event log is preserved across system resets.
To access the
Event Log
page, click

in the navigation menu.
