• Severity—The minimum severity that an event must have for it to be written
to the log in nonvolatile memory. For example, if you specify 2 (critical), then
critical, alert, and emergency events are logged to nonvolatile memory. Error
messages with a severity level of 3 to 7 are written to volatile memory.
• Depth—The maximum number of messages, up to 512, that can be stored in
volatile memory. When the number you configure in this field is reached, the
oldest log event is overwritten by the newest log event. Note that the
maximum number of log messages that can be stored in nonvolatile memory
(the persistent log) is 128, which is not configurable.
STEP 3 Click Save. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.
Remote Log Server
The Kernel Log is a comprehensive list of system events (shown in the System
Log) and kernel messages such as error conditions.
You cannot view kernel log messages directly from the web interface. You must
first set up a remote log server to receive and capture logs. Then you can
configure the WAP device to log to the remote log server.
Remote log server collection for WAP device syslog messages provides these
features:
• Allows aggregation of syslog messages from multiple APs
• Stores a longer history of messages than is kept on a single WAP device
• Triggers scripted management operations and alerts
To specify a host on your network to serve as a remote log server:
STEP 1 Select Administration > Log Settings in the navigation pane.
STEP 2 Configure the parameters:
• Remote Log—Enables the WAP device to send log messages to a remote
host. When disabled, all log messages are kept on the local system.
• Server IPv4/IPv6 Address/Name—The IPv4 or IPv6 address, or the
hostname of the remote log server.
