1	10:52:10		GW.026: Mnt nt 0 int Eth/0
2	10:52:10		GW.026: Mnt nt 5 int Eth/1->This triggers stop action
3	10:52:14		GW.026: Mnt nt 0 int Eth/0						Note that 5 more events
4	10:52:14		GW.026: Mnt nt 5 int Eth/1						get logged before
5	10:52:18		GW.026: Mnt nt 0 int Eth/0						logging stops and
6	10:52:18		GW.026: Mnt nt 5 int Eth/1						the stop action occurs.
7	10:52:22		GW.026: Mnt nt 0 int Eth/0
