System Event Log Configuration
This page allows the user to decide whether to send the system event log, and select the
mode which the system event log will be sent to client only, server only, or both client and
server. What kind of event log will be issued to the client/server depends on the selection
on the Event Configuration tab. There are four types of event—Device Cold Start,
Authentication Failure, X-Ring Topology Change, and Port Event—available to be issued
as the event log.
System Event Log—Syslog Configuration
 Syslog Client Mode: Select the system log mode—Client Only, Server Only, or Both.
‘Client Only’ means the system event log will only be sent to this interface of the switch, but
on the other hand ‘Server Only’ means the system log will only be sent to the remote
system log server with its IP assigned. If the mode is set in ‘Both’, the system event log will
be sent to the remote server and this interface.
 System Log Server IP Address: When the ‘Syslog Mode’ item is set as Server Only/Both,
the user has to assign the system log server IP address to which the log will be sent.
