Prestige 861H Series User's Guide CHAPTER 11 Logs Screens This chapter contains information about configuring general log settings and viewing the Prestige's logs. Refer to the appendix for example log message explanations. 11.1 Logs Overview The web configurator allows you to choose which categories of events and/or alerts to have the Prestige log and then display the logs or have the Prestige send them to an administrator (as e-mail) or to a syslog server. 11.1.1 Alerts and Logs An alert is a type of log that warrants more serious attention. They include system errors, attacks (access control) and attempted access to blocked web sites. Some categories such as System Errors consist of both logs and alerts. You may differentiate them by their color in the View Log screen. Alerts display in red and logs display in black. 11.2 Displaying the Logs Click Logs and then View Log to open the View Logs screen. Use the View Logs screen to see the logs for the categories that you selected in the Log Settings screen (see Section 11.2 on page 120). The log wraps around and deletes the old entries after it fills. Click a column heading to sort the entries. A triangle indicates ascending or descending sort order. Chapter 11 Logs Screens 120
