ADTRAN 1200305L1 system manual Using the Adtran Utility Syslog with the Atlas

USING THE ADTRAN UTILITY SYSLOG WITH THE ATLAS 550

Introduction

The ATLAS 550 Event Log is used to log various message types at settable threshold levels. The Event Log is a useful tool for troubleshooting switchboard (or call connection) activities including the viewing of digits received, digits transferred, and ISDN Messages. The Event Log can maintain the most recent 350 lines of data in a first in/first out buffer. To ensure that important data is not lost, saving the Event Log messages to an external Syslog server is advised. The ATLAS 550 ships with an ADTRAN provided Syslog server.

Prerequisite Procedures

This procedure assumes that the ATLAS 550 unit is connected to an IP network and is powered up.

Tools and Materials Required

•Syslog server (provided on ATLAS 550 System CD in ADTRAN Utilities)

To prevent electrical shock, do not install equipment in a wet location or during a lightning storm.

Electronic modules can be damaged by static electrical discharge. Before handling modules, wear an antistatic discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to electronic components. Place modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing. When working on modules, always place them on an approved antistatic mat that is electrically grounded.
