>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 on page
»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 message is received. This feature allows a user to quickly locate problem units during troubleshooting.
» Properties | When you click on Properties, |
| the Set Facility Filters dialog box |
| opens, allowing you to specify |
| what types of messages will be |
| logged to an ASCII text file. In the |
| example shown in here, all Sys- |
| Log event messages of Normal |
| and above (i.e., Critical, Major, |
| Minor 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. |
