P-971M User’s Guide

Figure 7 Event Log Screen

This screen consists of a list of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) messages which display the results of the configuration file download and installation on your P-971M as well as negotiation status information between the CMTS and your P-971M. Each step in the initial configuration as noted in Chapter 2 on page 24 may pass or fail. Warning or error messages are shown in the event log for easy troubleshooting.

The event log is presented as three fields: time the event occurred (actual time or Time Not Established), Priority level of the error with number (Emergency, Alert, Critical, Error, Warning, Notice, Informational, and Debug), and a short Description message of the error itself. Please refer to table Table 3 on page 33 for a description of the Priority level error messages.
