Logging Target Click the RAM or Flash links to view the logs stored on the switch.
Use the columns on the right to select the types of system events each logging
target should record. Select:
Error - to record system failures, such as events which will cause the switch to
malfunction and events such as invalid user input in the web configurator.
Warning - to record non critical errors on the switch. The switch will continue to
function when warnings are recorded.
Info - to record regular system events, such as configuration changes or logins.
Debug - to record events which can be helpful for engineering debugging of the
switch’s function. This field is not recommended to track as it creates many
messages not helpful to typical users.
For RAM and Flash logs you can also hit Clear to delete all log entries.
For each Server log you configured you can hit Delete to remove this syslog server
from logging system events for the switch.
