Class Name
Add screen:
Click the drop-down menu button and select the event class you want to add and configure for
special handling. (Please note that
Select Class is an instruction reminder, not a class.) Table 10-1
describes the event classes.
Modify screen:
The field shows the configured event class you are modifying. You cannot change this field.
All subsequent parameters on this screen apply to this event class only.
Enable
Check this box to enable the special handling of this event class. (The box is checked by default.)
Clearing this box lets you set up the parameters for the event class but activate it later, or temporarily
disable special handling without deleting the entry. The
Configured Event Classes list on the Configuration
| System | Events | Classes
screen indicates disabled event classes. Disabled event classes are handled
according to the default parameters for all event classes.
Severity to Log
Click the drop-down menu button and select the range of event severity levels to enter in the event log.
Choices are:
None, 1, 1-2, 1-3, ..., 1-13. The default is 1-5: events of severity level 1 through severity level
5 are entered in the event log.
Severity to Console
Click the drop-down menu button and select the range of event severity levels to display on the console.
Choices are:
None, 1, 1-2, 1-3, ..., 1-13. The default is 1-3: events of severity level 1 through severity level
3 are displayed on the console.
Severity to Syslog
Click the drop-down menu button and select the range of event severity levels to send to a UNIX syslog
server. Choices are:
None, 1, 1-2, 1-3, ..., 1-13. The default is None: no events are sent to a syslog server.
Note: Sending events to a syslog server generates IP packets, which can generate new events if this setting is
above level 9. We strongly recommend that you keep this setting at or below level 6. Avoid setting this
parameter above level 9.
If you select any severity levels to send, you must also configure the syslog server(s) on the
Configuration
| System | Events | Syslog Servers
screens, and you should configure the Syslog Format on the Configuration |
System | Events | General
screen.
