Alarms Configuration
Configuration -Alarms
The Configuration -Alarms page has the following menu options:
Event Settings
Event Logcodes
SMTP Account
Event Settings
Configuration - Alarms > Event Settings
The router maintains a log of events in the “LOGCODES.TXT” pseudo file. When an event of
a specified (or lower priority) level occurs, a syslog message, an email alert or SMS alert
(on W-WAN models) can be sent to a pre-defined address. The Configuration > Alarms >
Event Settings menu has the following sub-menuitems:
• Email Notifications
• SNMP Traps
• SMS Messages
• Local Logging
• Syslog Messages
• Syslog Server n
The Configuration > Alarms > Event Settings folder opens to show the following
parameters:-
Only log events with a log priority of at least n
This parameter enables a filter that ensures that only events having a specified severity or
lower level are logged.
Do not log the following events
This is a numerical list of comma-separated values specifying events to be excluded from
the log. These numerical values can be found in the eventlog.txt file on the router.
After power up, wait s seconds before sending Emails, SNMP traps, SMS or Syslog
messages
This parameter specifies the delay, in seconds, after power-up that the router should wait
before sending any alert messages. This is useful in circumstances where the sending of
those items would fail if sent too soon after the unit powers up because the underlying
interface that would be used has not completed initialisation.
Include event number in the event log and Email, SNMP traps or Syslog messages
When this option is enabled, event numbers from the “logcodes.txt” file will be included.
