Chapter SFE1000P Gigabit Ethernet Switch Administration Guide 15 Managing System Logs The System Logs enable viewing device events in real time, and recording the events for later usage. System Logs record and manage events and report errors or informational messages. Event messages have a unique format, as per the SYSLOG protocols recommended message format for all error reporting. For example, Syslog and local device reporting messages are assigned a severity code, and include a message mnemonic, which identifies the source application generating the message. It allows messages to be filtered based on their urgency or relevancy. Each message severity determines the set of event logging devices that are sent per each event logging. This section contains the following pages: • Enabling System Logs • Viewing the Device Memory Logs • Viewing the Flash Logs • Viewing Remote Logs Enabling System Logs In the Log Settings Page, define the levels of event severity that are recorded to the system event logs. The event severity levels are listed on this page in descending order from the highest severity to the lowest. When a severity level is selected to appear in a log, all higher severity events will automatically be selected to appear in the log. Conversely, when a security level is not selected, no lower severity events will appear in the log. For example, if Warning is selected, all severity levels higher and including Warning will appear in the log. Additionally, no events with a lower severity level than Warning will be listed.
