SMTP Logging enabled

With this option, the IP module is able to send Emails to an address given by the Email address text eld

in the Event Log Settings. These mails contain the same description strings as the internal log le and

the mail subject is lled 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 IP module device and that needs

no authentication at all (<serverip>:<port>).

SNMP Logging enabled

If this is activated, the IP module sends a SNMP trap to a specied destination IP address, every time a

log event occurs. If the receiver requires a community string, you can set it in the appropriate text eld.

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 elds with detailed

information about the occurred event. To receive this SNMP traps, any SNMP trap listener may be used.

Here is a example of all gerenated event and its event group.

Warning

In contrast to the internal log le on the IP module, the size of the NFS log le

is not limited. Every log event will be appended to the end of the le so it grows

continuously and you may have to delete it or move it away from time to time.
