For information about configuring system time settings, see "Managing
General System Settings" on page 431.
Log Messages
The switch maintains in-memory log messages as well as persistent logs.
Remote logging can be configured so that the switch sends log messages to a
remote syslog server. The switch can also be configured to email log messages
to a configured SMTP server. This allows the administrator to receive the log
message in a specified e-mail account. Switch auditing messages, CLI
command logging, Web logging, and SNMP logging can be enabled or
disabled.
Dell EMC Networking N-Series switches support logging to syslog servers
over IPv4 or IPv6.
For information about configuring system logging, see "Monitoring and
Logging System Information" on page 393.
Integrated DHCP Server
Dell EMC Networking N-Series switches include an integrated DHCP server
that can deliver host-specific configuration information to hosts on the
network. The switch DHCP server allows the configuration of IPv4 address
pools (scopes), and when a host’s DHCP client requests an address, the
switch DHCP server automatically assigns the host an address from the pool.
For information about configuring the DHCP server settings, see "DHCP
Server Settings" on page 1149.
Management of Basic Network Information
The DHCP client on the switch allows the switch to acquire information such
as the IPv4 or IPv6 address and default gateway from a network DHCP server.
The DHCP client can also be disabled and static network information can be
configured instead. Other configurable network information includes a
Domain Name Server (DNS), hostname to IP address mapping, and a default
domain name.
NOTE: This feature is not supported on the Dell EMC Networking
N1100-ON/N1500 Series switches.
