Notifications, Alarms, and Data Buffering
On “syslogger” the system administrator has configured the system logging
utility to write messages from the
local1 facility to the /var/log/
saopaulo-config
file and the messages from the local2 facility to the /
var/log/fremont-config
file. While identifying the syslog server using
the Web Manager, according to this example, you would select the facility
number Local 2 from the Facility Number drop-down list on the System Log
form.
SNMP Traps

notification generated whenever they occur. The following is a list of generic
