Chapter 26 IP Source Guard Table 83 ARP Inspection Configure (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Log buffer size Enter the maximum number (1~1024) of log messages that were generated by ARP packets and have not been sent to the syslog server yet. Make sure this number is appropriate for the specified Syslog rate and Log interval. Syslog rate If the number of log messages in the Switch exceeds this number, the Switch stops recording log messages and simply starts counting the number of entries that were dropped due to unavailable buffer. Click Clearing log status table in the ARP Inspection Log Status screen to clear the log and reset this counter. See Section 26.6.2 on page 254. Enter the maximum number of syslog messages the Switch can send to the syslog server in one batch. This number is expressed as a rate because the batch frequency is determined by the Log Interval. You must configure the syslog server (Chapter 36 on page 329) to use this. Enter 0 if you do not want the Switch to send log messages generated by ARP packets to the syslog server. The relationship between Syslog rate and Log interval is illustrated in the following examples: Log interval Apply Cancel • 4 invalid ARP packets per second, Syslog rate is 5, Log interval is 1: the Switch sends 4 syslog messages every second. • 6 invalid ARP packets per second, Syslog rate is 5, Log interval is 2: the Switch sends 5 syslog messages every 2 seconds. Enter how often (1-86400 seconds) the Switch sends a batch of syslog messages to the syslog server. Enter 0 if you want the Switch to send syslog messages immediately. See Syslog rate for an example of the relationship between Syslog rate and Log interval. Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch's run-time memory. The Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.

ARP Inspection Port Configure
Use this screen to specify whether ports are trusted or untrusted ports for ARP
inspection. You can also specify the maximum rate at which the Switch receives
Log buffer size
Enter the maximum number (1~1024) of log messages that were
generated by ARP packets and have not been sent to the syslog
server yet. Make sure this number is appropriate for the specified
Syslog rate
and
Log interval
.
If the number of log messages in the Switch exceeds this number,
the Switch stops recording log messages and simply starts
counting the number of entries that were dropped due to
unavailable buffer. Click
Clearing log status table
in the
ARP
Inspection Log Status
screen to clear the log and reset this
counter. See
Section 26.6.2 on page 254
.
Syslog rate
Enter the maximum number of syslog messages the Switch can
send to the syslog server in one batch. This number is expressed
as a rate because the batch frequency is determined by the
Log
Interval
. You must configure the syslog server (
Chapter 36 on
page 329
) to use this. Enter 0 if you do not want the Switch to
send log messages generated by ARP packets to the syslog server.
The relationship between
Syslog rate
and
Log interval
is
illustrated in the following examples:
4 invalid ARP packets per second,
Syslog rate
is 5,
Log
interval
is 1: the Switch sends 4 syslog messages every
second.
6 invalid ARP packets per second,
Syslog rate
is 5,
Log
interval
is 2: the Switch sends 5 syslog messages every 2
seconds.
Log interval
Enter how often (1-86400 seconds) the Switch sends a batch of
syslog messages to the syslog server. Enter 0 if you want the
Switch to send syslog messages immediately. See
Syslog rate
for an example of the relationship between
Syslog rate
and
Log
interval
.
Apply
Click
Apply
to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time
memory. The Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses
power, so use the

link on the top navigation panel to save
your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done
configuring.

Click this to reset the values in this screen to their last-saved
values.
