Chapter 9 Events

Configuration System Events Classes Add or Modify

Severity to Console

Click the drop-down menu button and select the range of event severity levels to display on the console. The choices are: None, 1, 1-2, 1-3,..., 1-13. The default is 1-3; if you choose this range, events of severity level 1 through severity level 3 are displayed on the console.

Severity to Syslog

Click the drop-down menu button and select the range of event severity levels to send to a UNIX syslog server. The choices are: None, 1, 1-2, 1-3,..., 1-13. The default is None; if you choose this range, no events are sent to a syslog server.

Note Sending events to a syslog server generates IP packets, which can generate new events if this setting is above level 9. We strongly recommend that you keep this setting at or below level 6. Avoid setting this parameter above level 9.

If you select any severity levels to send, you must also configure the syslog server(s) on the Configuration System Events Syslog Servers screens, and you should configure the Syslog Format on the Configuration System Events General screen.

Severity to Trap

Click the drop-down menu button and select the range of event severity levels to send to an SNMP network management system. Event messages sent to SNMP systems are called “traps.” The choices are: None, 1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5. The default is None; if you choose this range, no events are sent as SNMP traps.

If you select any severity levels to send, you must also configure SNMP destination system parameters on the Configuration System Events Trap Destinations screens.

To configure “well-known” SNMP traps, see Table 9-4under Severity to Trap for Configuration System Events General.

Add or Apply/Cancel

To add this event class to the list of those with special handling, click Add. Or to apply your changes to this configured event class, click Apply. Both actions include your entry in the active configuration. The Manager returns to the Configuration System Events Classes screen. Any new event class appears in the Configured Event Classes list.

Reminder:

To save the active configuration and make it the boot configuration, click the Save Needed icon at the top of the Manager window.

To discard your settings, click Cancel. The Manager returns to the Configuration System Events Classes screen.
