Table 83 ARP Inspection Configure (continued)

LABEL

DESCRIPTION

Syslog rate

Enter the maximum number of syslog messages the Switch can

 

send to the syslog server in one batch. This number is expressed

 

as a rate because the batch frequency is determined by the Log

 

Interval. You must configure the syslog server (Chapter 36 on

 

page 331) to use this. Enter 0 if you do not want the Switch to

 

send log messages generated by ARP packets to the syslog server.

 

The relationship between Syslog rate and Log interval is

 

illustrated in the following examples:

 

• 4 invalid ARP packets per second, Syslog rate is 5, Log

 

interval is 1: the Switch sends 4 syslog messages every

 

second.

 

• 6 invalid ARP packets per second, Syslog rate is 5, Log

 

interval is 2: the Switch sends 5 syslog messages every 2

 

seconds.

 

 

Log interval

Enter how often (1-86400 seconds) the Switch sends a batch of

 

syslog messages to the syslog server. Enter 0 if you want the

 

Switch to send syslog messages immediately. See Syslog rate

 

for an example of the relationship between Syslog rate and Log

 

interval.

 

 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time

 

memory. The Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses

 

power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save

 

your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done

 

configuring.

 

 

Cancel

Click this to reset the values in this screen to their last-saved

 

values.
