HP VCX Software Log class for Dhcp requests, Log class for packets to the Telecommuting Module

Chapter 9. Logging

Log class for DHCP requests

Here, you select a log class for DHCP requests. DHCP is a protocol used for dynamic allo- cation of IP addresses. Requests are sent by broadcast from computers wanting an IP address to a DHCP server. The Telecommuting Module logs all DHCP related packets using the log class you select here. There are usually a lot of these packets, so we recommend using the log class "None", meaning that no packets are logged at all.

Log class for SNMP requests to the Telecommuting Module

Here, you select a log class for SNMP requests to the Telecommuting Module. SNMP is a protocol for monitoring network equipment such as firewalls and routers.

Log class for packets to the Telecommuting Module

Here, you select a log class for traffic addressed to the Telecommuting Module itself. Even if you select not to log this traffic, the configuration traffic to the Telecommuting Module will be logged according to the log class set on the Access Control page.

Warnings

Log class for email errors

If the Telecommuting Module is unable to send email messages, for example, if the mail server won’t reply, the Telecommuting Module generates a log message. Here, you select a log class for these messages.

Log class for RADIUS errors

Radiusmux (see the RADIUS section in the chapter titled Basic Configuration) generates messages for incomprehensible RADIUS server responses and for denying logins on account of permissions (a user defined for road warriors is not automatically allowed to log onto the configuration server). Here, you select a log class for these messages.

Log class for SNMP errors

The Telecommuting Module generates messages about SNMP errors. Here, you select a log class for these messages.
