6.8.3 System Event Log—Event Configuration

Having ticked the Syslog/SMTP checkboxes, the event log/email alert will be sent to the system log server and the SMTP server respectively. Also, Port event log/alert (link up, link down, and both) can be sent to the system log server/SMTP server respectively by setting the trigger condition.

„System event selection: There are 4 event types—Device Cold Start, Device Warm Start, Authentication Failure, and X-ring Topology Change. The checkboxes are not available for ticking unless the Syslog Client Mode on the Syslog Configuration tab and the E-mail Alert on the SMTP Configuration tab are enabled first.

¾Device cold start: When the device executes cold start action, the system will issue the event log/email alert to the system log/SMTP server respectively.

¾Device warm start: When the device executes warm start, the system will issue the event log/email alert to the system log/SMTP server respectively.

¾Authentication Failure: When the SNMP authentication fails, the system will issue the event log/email alert to the system log/SMTP server respectively.

¾X-ring topology change: When the X-ring topology has changed, the system will issue the event log/email alert to the system log/SMTP server respectively.

„Port event selection: Also, before the drop-down menu items are available, the Syslog Client Mode selection item on the Syslog Configuration tab and the E-mail Alert selection item on the SMTP Configuration tab must be enabled first. Those drop-down menu items have 3 selections—Link UP, Link Down, and Link UP & Link Down. Disable means no event will be sent to the system log/SMTP server.

¾Link UP: The system will only issue a log message when the link-up event of the port occurs.

¾Link Down: The system will only issue a log message when the link-down event of port occurs.

¾Link UP & Link Down: The system will issue a log message at the time when port connection is link-up and link-down.
