Configure and the view the logs
The switch generates messages in response to events, faults, or errors occurring on the
platform as well as changes in configuration or other occurrences. These messages are
stored locally and can be forwarded to one or more centralized points of collection for
monitoring purposes or long-term archival storage. Local and remote configuration of the
logging capability includes filtering of messages logged or forwarded based on severity and
generating component.
Manage the memory log
Note: When the management mode is NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and
Insight Cloud Portal (Cloud/Remote), which means that the local browser
UI provides a limited menu only, you can still perform this task.
The memory log stores messages in memory based upon the settings for the message
component and severity
. You can manage the administrative status and behavior of the log.
The log messages are cleared when the switch reboots.
The log can display 200 message entries on the page.
