Setting Syslog Event Notifications
Syslog Events are logged according to the level of detail specified by the administrator. Logging only urgent system
messages will create a far smaller, more easily read log than a log of every event the system encounters. Determine
which events to log by selecting a priority defined by the following scale:
Configuring Syslog Event Notifications
You can configure the following Syslog settings from the HTTP interface:
• Enable Syslog: Place a check mark in the box provided to enable system logging.
• Syslog Port Number: This field is read-only and displays the port number (514) assigned for system logging.
• Syslog Lowest Priority Logged: The AP will send event messages to the Syslog server that correspond to the
selected priority number and any priority numbers below it. For example, if set to 6, the AP will transmit event
messages labeled priority 1 to 6 to the Syslog server. This parameter supports a range between 1 and 7; 6 is the
default.
• Syslog Heartbeat Status: When Heartbeat is enabled, the AP periodically sends a message to the Syslog server to
indicate that it is active.
