Parameter Description

List logging enabled

The common way to log events is to use the internal log list of

the SP1200A. In order to show the log list, please click on

<Event Log> under “Maintenance”. Since the SP1200A’s

system memory is used to save all the information, the

maximum number of possible log list entries is restricted to

1000 events. Every entry that exceeds this limit overrides the

oldest one.

NFS Logging enabled

Define a NFS server, where a directory or a static link has to

be exported, to write all logging data to a file that is located

there. To write logging data from more than one SP1200A

devices to only one NFS share, you have to define a file

name that is unique for each device. When you change the

NFS settings and press the button <Apply>, the NFS share

will be mounted immediately. That means, the NFS share and

the NFS server must be filled with valid sources or you will get

an error message.

SMTP Logging

enabled

With this option, the SP1200A is able to send Emails to an

address given by the Email address text field in the Event Log

Settings. These mails contain the same description strings as

the internal log file and the mail subject is filled with the event

group of the occurred log event. In order to use this log

destination you have to specify a SMTP server that has to be

reachable from the SP1200A device and that needs no

authentication at all (<serverip>:<port>).

SNMP Logging

enabled

If this is activated, the SP1200A sends a SNMP trap to a

specified destination IP address, every time a log event

occurs. If the receiver requires a community string, you can

set it in the appropriate text field. Most of the event traps only

contain one descriptive string with all information about the

log event. Only authentication and host power events have an

own trap class that consists of several fields with detailed

information about the occurred event. To receive this SNMP

traps, any SNMP trap listener may be used.
