and when the NWA will send the logs, and which logs and/or immediate alerts it
will send.
19.1.2 What You Need To Know About Logs
The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter.
Alerts and Logs
An alert is a type of log that warrants more serious attention. Some categories
such as System Errors consist of both logs and alerts. You can differentiate them
by their color in the View Log screen. Alerts are displayed in red and logs are
displayed in black.
Receiving Logs via Email
If you want to receive logs in your email account, you need to have the necessary
details ready, such as the Server Name or SMPT Address of your email account.
Ensure that you have a valid email address.
Enabling Syslog Logging
To enable Syslog Logging, obtain your Syslog server’s IP address (or server
name).
19.2 The View Log Screen
Use this screen to see the logs for the categories that you selected in the Log
Settings screen (see Figure 135 on page 238). Options include logs about system
maintenance, system errors and access control.
You can view logs and alert messages in this page. Once the log entries are all
used, the log will wrap around and the old logs will be deleted.
Click a column heading to sort the entries. A triangle indicates ascending or
descending sort order.
