CN8000 User Manual

The List Panel

The List panel contains six fields:

Field

Explanation

 

 

Recording

Determines whether the Log Server records log events for

 

this CN8000 or not. If the Recording check box is checked,

 

the field displays Recording, and log events are recorded. If

 

the Recording check box is not checked, the field displays

 

Paused, and log events are not recorded.

 

Note: Even though a CN8000 is not the currently selected

 

one, if its Recording check box is checked, the Log Server will

 

still record its log events.

 

 

Address

This is the IP Address or DNS name that was given to the

 

CN8000 when it was added to the Log Server (see Configure,

 

page 121).

 

 

Port

This is the port number that was assigned to the CN8000

 

when it was added to the Log Server (see Configure,

 

page 121).

 

 

Connection

If the Log Server is connected to the CN8000, this field

 

displays Connected.

 

If it is not connected, this field displays Waiting. This means

 

that the Log Server's MAC address and/or port number has

 

not been set properly. It needs to be set in theANMS - Event

 

Destination settings (see page 41) and specified in the

 

Configure dialog box (see Configure, page 121).

 

 

Days

This field displays the number of days that the CN8000's log

 

events are to be kept in the Log Server's database before

 

expiration (see Configure, page 121).

 

 

Description

This field displays the descriptive information given for the

 

CN8000 when it was added to the Log Server (see Configure,

 

page 121).

 

 

The Tick Panel

The lower panel displays tick information for the currently selected CN8000. Note that if the installation contains more than one switch, even though a switch isn’t currently selected, if its Recording checkbox is checked, the Log Server records its tick information and keeps it in its database.
