Logs

 

 

 

 

 

-Informational (6)—Informational messages.

-Debug (7)—Provides detailed information about an event.

You can use the Log Settings page to select the severity levels that are recorded in the log.

Component - The software component or service that produced the log entry.

Description—The log description.

You can click Clear Logs to remove all log entries from RAM.

Flash Memory Log

The Flash Memory Log Files are persistent across reboots and contain information that includes the time the log was entered, the log severity, and a description of the event. Several log types are supported, and the system stores up to three versions of each type.

The first few log entries that might be generated during the initial powering on of the switch and booting from the factory default configuration might be important to a troubleshooter. Therefore when the switch is first booted from the factory default configuration, it places the first 32 messages into the Start-up log and the balance of the messages are logged into the Operational log.

If the logs are cleared, the Start-up log is retained unless the switch is booted from the factory default configuration. Only when the switch is booted from the factory default configuration is the Start-up log cleared and repopulated.

To view a Flash log:

STEP 1 Click Status and Statistics > View Log > Flash Memory in the navigation window. STEP 2 Select a log type from the list:

Default—Entries from the startup and operational logs.

Startup—The first 32 log entries created during system restarts.

Operational—Log entries created during system operation.

STEP 3 Select a log version to display.

SLM2008PTNA specifications

Cisco Systems SLM2008PTNA is a robust network switch designed specifically for small to medium-sized businesses. It operates with 8 Fast Ethernet ports, providing advanced features and best-in-class performance to enhance your network infrastructure. This model ensures seamless connectivity for multiple devices, making it an ideal choice for environments requiring reliable network communication.

One of the standout features of the SLM2008PTNA is its Layer 2 switching capabilities. This switch supports auto-negotiation, which allows each port to automatically detect the speed of the connected device and adjust accordingly. This ensures optimal performance and smooth operation across various connected devices. Additionally, the switch supports a non-blocking architecture, ensuring that bandwidth is not shared, which significantly enhances data transmission speed.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is another key technology incorporated into the Cisco SLM2008PTNA. It simplifies the installation of network devices such as VoIP phones, security cameras, and wireless access points by supplying power through the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power sources, reducing installation costs and increasing flexibility in device placement.

Moreover, the SLM2008PTNA comes equipped with advanced security features, such as port security and VLAN support. Port security allows network administrators to restrict access to the network based on MAC addresses, preventing unauthorized access and enhancing network security. The support for Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) enables the segmentation of the network into different logical networks, improving traffic management and security within each segment.

The switch is designed for easy management and monitoring, featuring a user-friendly web interface that simplifies configuration. This allows network administrators to quickly set up and manage the device without requiring extensive technical knowledge. Additionally, its compact design makes it suitable for desktop or rack-mount installation, maximizing space efficiency in network environments.

In conclusion, the Cisco Systems SLM2008PTNA is an essential component for small to medium-sized businesses looking to enhance their network performance. With its Layer 2 switching capabilities, Power over Ethernet support, advanced security features, and ease of management, this switch provides a well-rounded solution for modern networking needs, delivering reliable performance and scalability for growth.
