Setting a Remote Log Server
You can use the AlliedWare Plus Web browser interface to assign the
switch to a remote log server which is part of the Syslog feature. However,
you must use the CLI to view or clear the event log. For information about
the CLI, see the SysLog chapters in the AlliedWare Plus Management
Software Command Line Interface User’s Guide.
To activate remote logging on the switch, do the following:
1. Select the System tab.
The System Settings tab is displayed. See Figure 6 on page 33.
2. From the System Settings tab, select Services.
The System Services page is displayed. See Figure 10 on page 39.
3. Configure the following parameters as necessary:
Remote Log— Enables the switch to send status and error
messages to a remote log server. This parameter is optional.
Server IP Address— Specifies the IP address of the remote log
server. This field is mandatory if you selected the Remote Log field
above. You can enter the IP address in the IPv4 format:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.
where each x is a decimal number from 0 to 255. The numbers are
separated by periods.
4. Click Apply.
5. Click SAVE to save your changes on the switch.
