Models 5380 and 5580 -- System 5000 hubs support up to 14 instances of the
wfSerialPortEntry object. Each instance corresponds to one of the 14 possible hub
slots. Enable the log autosave feature only on one slot occupied by a
Model 5380/5580 router in a System 5000 hub. (Multiple 5380/5580 boards
installed in the same System 5000 hub operate as one logical router if that hub
contains an ATM/PPX backplane.)
Configuring the Log Autosave Feature
Proceed as follows to enable and customize operation of the log autosave feature:
1.
Determine how you want to configure the log autosave feature, based on
descriptions of
• wfSerialPortEntry attributes
wfSerialPortAutoSaveNumFiles
and
wfSerialPortAutoSaveVolume
• Log autosave platform differences (see previous section)
2.
Open a Technician Interface session with the router.
3.
Enter with appropriate arguments the command shown for each
attribute, followed by a
commit
command.
4.
Close the Technician Interface session when you finish configuring the log
autosave feature.
Repeat this procedure for any Bay Networks router on which you need to enable
the log autosave feature.
For more explanation of the Technician Interface
set
and
commit
commands, see
“Using the set Command” and “Using the commit Command” in Chapter 2.
Note:
If the System 5000 does not contain an ATM/PPX backplane, each
Model 5380/5580 board operates as an independent router. In this case, you
can configure the log autosave feature on each Model 5380/5580 board
independently.
