62 CHAPTER 7: STATUS MONITORING AND STATISTICS The Audit Log The Switch keeps an audit log of all management user sessions, providing a record of a variety of changes, including ones relating to RMON. The log can only be read by users at the security access level using an SNMP Network Management application. Each entry in the log contains information in the following order: ■ Entry number ■ Timestamp ■ User ID ■ Item ID (including qualifier) ■ New value of item The last 16 operations are stored in the audit log. The oldest records are overwritten first. Email Notification of Your Switch allows you to receive email notification when certain RMON Events events occur. You can receive notification via email, SMS (Short Message Service), or pager, of the event that has occurred. This feature uses an SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) email client to send the notification email. The Short Message Service (SMS) and pager messages are constrained on message size so they are sent to a different email address which creates the message to be displayed and then forwards it on to the SMS or pager gateway. You can configure the email address to which you wish the notifications to be sent. However, you cannot change the factory default notification messages for event emails. RMON traps continue to be sent, in addition to any email notifications you may receive. The events that can generate email notification are: ■ Unit powers up. ■ Unit in the stack fails. ■ Fan in the unit fails.

The Audit Log
The Switch keeps an audit log of all management user sessions, providing
a record of a variety of changes, including ones relating to RMON. The
log can only be read by users at the
security
access level using an SNMP
Network Management application.
Each entry in the log contains information in the following order:
■
Entry number
■
Timestamp
■
User ID
■
Item ID (including qualifier)
■
New value of item
The last 16 operations are stored in the audit log. The oldest records are
overwritten first.
Email Notification of
Events
Your Switch allows you to receive email notification when certain RMON
events occur. You can receive notification via email, SMS (Short Message
Service), or pager, of the event that has occurred.
This feature uses an SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) email client to
send the notification email. The Short Message Service (SMS) and pager
messages are constrained on message size so they are sent to a different
email address which creates the message to be displayed and then
forwards it on to the SMS or pager gateway.
You can configure the email address to which you wish the notifications
to be sent. However, you cannot change the factory default notification
messages for event emails.
RMON traps continue to be sent, in addition to any email notifications
you may receive.
The events that can generate email notification are:
■
Unit powers up.
■
Unit in the stack fails.
■
Fan in the unit fails.
