ADTRAN 550 user manual Display, LOG Files, Help

Chapter 14. ADTRAN Utilities

DISPLAY	Sets the buffer size and display font. Also, clears the display.
LOG FILES	Erases log files, defines Red events, sets priorities and action to be taken
	when an event occurs, and clears Red events. (See Define RED Events in the
	following paragraphs.)
ERASE LOG FILES	The SysLog utility, by default, stores all messages of a certain priority in a
	specified local log file or facility. These files are named LOCAL0.txt,
	LOCAL1.txt, LOCAL2.TXT, and so on. To erase the file, click on this menu.
DEFINE RED EVENTS	The Red events feature allows the user to predefine a
	message priority condition so that if the condition oc-
	curs, the file is highlighted in red. In the figure shown
	here, any LOCAL0 through LOCAL7 facility becomes
	highlighted in red if a CRITICAL, MAJOR or MINOR mes-
	sage is received. This feature allows a user to quickly lo-
	cate problem units during troubleshooting.
PROPERTIES	When you click on PROPERTIES,
	the SET FACILITY FILTERS dialog
	box opens, allowing you to speci-
	fy what types of messages will be
	logged to an ASCII text file. In the
	example shown here, all SysLog
	event messages of NORMAL and
	above (i.e., CRITICAL, MAJOR, MI-
	NOR and WARNING) will be logged.
	INFO (debug) messages will be
	blocked. In this example, if the log
	file exceeds 20K, SysLog alerts the
	user on startup to this fact. Also,
	from this box, you can set the alert
	action.
CLEAR RED EVENTS	Click this item to clear all predefined RED events.
HELP	Opens the help files, reports on the IP status, and provides information on
	SysLog version number.
