6.3.4 Logs
The device supports two types of log mechanisms:
1. Event Log: Based on the configured event log priority, all the log messages are logged and used for any analysis. This
log messages remain until they are cleared by the user.
2. Syslog: They are similar to Event logs except that they are cleared on device reboot.
To configure Event log and Syslog priority, navigate to MANAGEMENT > Services > Logs. The following screen appears:
Figure 6-23 Logs

Event Log Priority: By default, the priority is set to Notice. You can configure the event log priority as one of the
following:
– Emergency
– Alert
– Critical
– Error
– Warning
– Notice
– Info
– Debug
Please note that the priorities are listed in the order of their severity, where Emergency takes the highest severity and
Debug the lowest. When the log priority is configured as high, all the logs with low priority are also logged. For
example, if Event Log Priority is set to Notice, then the device will log all logs with priorities Notice, Warning, Error,
Critical, Alert and Emergency.

Syslog Status: By default, Syslog Status is enabled and default priority is Critical. If desired, you can choose to
disable.
