About Event Log Levels
All events have an associated level in the range
See Events and Levels for a list of all events that are logged by the VCS, and the level at which they are logged.
Level | Assigned Events |
Level 1 | |
| and call attempts. Easily human readable. For |
| example: |
| • call attempt/connected/disconnected |
| • registration attempt/accepted/rejected. |
Level 2 | All Level 1 Events, plus: |
| • Logs of protocol messages sent and received |
| (H.323, LDAP, etc.) excluding noisy messages |
| such as H.460.18 keepalives and H.245 |
| video |
Level 3 | All Level 1 and Level 2 Events, plus: |
| • Protocol keepalives |
Level 4 | All Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 Events, plus: |
| • SIP messages |
We do not usually recommend logging at Level 3 or
! Level 4, as the Event Log holds a maximum of 40 MB of data and logging at these levels on a busy system could
cause the Event Log to be recycled too quickly.
Setting the Event Log Level
You can control which events are logged by the VCS by setting the log level. All events with a level numerically equal to and lower than the specified logging level are recorded in the event log. So, at Level 1, only Level 1 events are logged; at Level 2, both Level 1 and Level 2 events are logged, etc.
To set the log level:
•System Configuration > Logging.
You will be taken to the Logging page.
•xConfiguration Log Level
Log level
Select the level of logging you require.
The default is 1.
Changes to the event
log level affect both the event log that you
can view via the web interface, and the information that is copied to the remote log server (if any) that you have configured.
Changes to the event
log level are not retrospective. If you
change the event log level, it will only effect what is logged from that point onwards.
