Logging and Alarms
Acknowledge
Sometimes you will want to store an alarm in the log even after you have
viewed it, whether because you want another administrator to see it or
because you want to track a particular pattern of activity. In this case, instead
of deleting the alarm, you should click Acknowledge to change its status.
Only acknowledge an alarm, of course, if you have addressed any associated
problems; otherwise, other administrators may neglect to do so.
Export
The Wireless Edge Services xl Module allows you to save logged information
to your workstations. This useful feature lets you:
■ save information that might be important later, while keeping the log clear
for future events
■ send a file of alarms to support staff for troubleshooting help
■ pool information from multiple devices in a central location
■ track patterns of network activity
To export the information in one or more alarms, select those alarms and click
Export. In the screen that displays, select a file name and a location for the
logs, which are saved as a comma-separated file.
