The Log Server

Configure (continued)

When you open the Add function the following dialog box will appear:

Descriptions of the fields in this dialog box are shown in the table below:

Field

Description

Address

This can either be the IP address of the B051-000 or its DNS name (if the network administrator has assigned it a DNS name).

 

This value must be entered into the ANMS settings screen for the B051-000 to communicate with the Log Server.

 

 

Port

Key in the port number that was specified for the B051-000 in the ANMS settings screen. If this differs from the port entered in

 

the ANMS settings screen, the Log Server will not be able to communicate with the B051-000.

Description

This field is provided so that you can enter in additional information that will help differentiate this B051-000 from the rest of

 

the B051-000 units the Log Server is recording information for.

 

 

Limit

This specifies the number of days that an event is kept in the Log Server’s database before it can be deleted. To remove all

 

events that have passed the expiration date set in this field, use the Maintenance function in the Events menu.

 

 

Edit

Select the Edit function when you need to change the information for an existing B051-000. To edit an existing B051-000, simply select it from the list and open the Edit function from the Configure drop-down menu. A dialog box will appear that shows the exact information that was entered for the B051-000 when it was added using the Add function. Edit this information and click OK.

Delete

To delete a B051-000, simply select it from the list and open the Delete function. A dialog box will appear which will display the B051-000’s information and ask you to click OK to delete it. If you want to remove it from the Log Server, click OK.
