Section 4 IP Access Configuration & Operation

SMTP Logging enabled

With this option, the P16-IP is able to send Emails to an address given by the Email address text field in the Event Log Settings. These mails contain the same description strings as the internal log file and the mail subject is filled with the event group of the occurred log event. In order to use this log destination you have to specify an SMTP server that has to be reachable from the P16-IP and that needs no authentication at all (<serverip>:<port>).

SNMP Logging enabled

If this is activated, the P16-IP sends an SNMP trap to a specified destination IP address every time a log event occurs. If the receiver requires a community string, you can set it in the appropriate text field. Most of the event traps only contain one descriptive string with all information about the log event. Only authentication and host power events have a trap class that consists of several fields with detailed information about the occurred event. To receive these SNMP traps, any SNMP trap listener may be used.

Warning In contrast to the internal log file on the P16-IP, the size of the NFS log file is not limited. Every log event will be appended to the end of the file so it grows continuously, so you may have to delete it or move it from time to time.
