The Events Manager saves the log to an ASCII file in the specified local
directory. (If you do not specify a directory, the file is automatically saved to
your local directory.)
For viewing purposes, you can reload event logs saved in binary format into
the Events Manager, but you cannot reload event logs saved in ASCII format.
Clearing the Current Event Log
The router’s event log can hold only a fixed number of messages. When the file
reaches its limit, the Events Manager starts overwriting the log from the
beginning.
To clear a router’s current event log:
1. In the main Site Manager window, choose Administration > Clear Event
Log.
A confirmation window opens (Figure
7-21).

Click on OK.
This deletes all the event messages that are currently stored in the router’s
memory.
Site Manager enters a message in the event log indicating that it has cleared
the log. New event messages automatically start filling the event log.
