Configuring the Switch

Logging Trap  Limits log messages that are sent to the remote Syslog server for all levels up to the specified level.. For example, if level 3 is specified, all messages from level 0 to level 3 will be sent to the remote server.. (Range: 0-7, Default: 7)

Syslog Server  Displays the list of remote server IP addresses that will receive Syslog messages..The maximum number of host IP addresses allowed is five..

Enable Remote Log Status, set the Logging Facility type number, and configure the level of event messages to be sent to Syslog servers.. Enter up to five Syslog server IP addresses in the server list.. Click Save Settings..

SMTP Setting

To alert system administrators of problems, the Switch can use SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) to send e-mail messages when triggered by logging events of a specified level.. The messages are sent to specified SMTP servers on the network and can be retrieved using POP or IMAP clients..

Admin Status  Enables/disables the SMTP function.. (Default: Enabled)

Severity  Sets the Syslog severity threshold level used to trigger alert messages.. All events at this level or higher are sent to the configured e-mail recipients.. For example, using Level 7 will report all events from level 7 to level 0.. (Default: Level 7)

SMTP (1-3) Specifies a list of up to three recipient SMTP server IP addresses.. The Switch attempts to connect to the other listed servers if the first fails..

Source E-mail Address  Sets the e-mail address used for the “From” field in alert messages.. You may use a symbolic e-mail address that identifies the Switch, or the address of an administrator responsible for the Switch..

Destination E-mail Address (1-5)  Specifies the e-mail recipients of alert messages.. You can specify up to five recipients..

Enable Admin Status, select the minimum severity level, and specify a source e-mail address.. Add at least one IP address to the SMTP server list and specify up to five email addresses to receive the alert messages.. Click Save Settings..

Admin > Port Mirroring

You can mirror traffic from any source port to a target port for real-time analysis.. You can then attach a logic analyzer or RMON probe to the target port and study the traffic crossing the source port in a completely unobtrusive manner..

The target port speed should match or exceed source port speed, otherwise traffic may be dropped from the monitor port..

The Switch supports only one mirror session..

Admin > Port Mirroring

Set the following attributes for port mirroring using the Port Mirroring screen..

Source Port  The port whose traffic will be monitored..

Type  Allows you to select which traffic to mirror to the target port; receive, transmit, or both..

Target Port  The port that will mirror the traffic on the source port..

Specify the source port, the traffic type to be mirrored, and the target port, then click Add.. The mirror session is displayed in the text box..
