Event Reporting
The PacketWave 200 offers several means of reporting subscriber equipment events:
• E-mail messages — The PacketWave 200 can be configured (via the Configuration
Manager, the Web GUI, or SNMP) to report events via e-mail to specified addresses.
• SNMP traps — The PacketWave 200 SNMP agent supports trap reporting. Trap-
reporting parameters can be specified via the WaveCenter Configuration Manager,
the Web GUI, or SNMP.
• Syslog — The PacketWave 200 supports logging of event messages to a designated
server according to the Syslog protocol. If Syslog is employed, the Syslog server
must be identified in the Subscriber Unit configuration file created using the
WaveCenter Configuration Manager.
Use of Syslog is strongly recommended as a means of providing a record of
system events for performance management and troubleshooting.
• Event log — A historical event log can be displayed on request via the Web GUI.
For information about specific PacketWave 200 events which can be reported, see
Appendix B.
