Note: IRIG-1344 only provides a Leap Indicator warning during the last minute of the day of
the event. In this case, while the SyncServer will propagate that information via NTP, NTP cli-
ents may not query the SyncServer in time to be warned of the leap second adjustment.
LAN1 Link Alarm: A network connection is not available on LAN1. Note that if LAN1 is down,
SNMP and Email notification do not work and the web interface is not available.
Note: The Network LED indicates the status of the "LAN* Link Alarms". Please consult
Status LEDs.
LAN2 Link Alarm: LAN2 has lost its network connection.
LAN3 Link Alarm: LAN3 has lost its network connection.
Timing NTP Daemon Alarm: The NTP Daemon is no longer a valid source of timing to the Hard-
ware Clock.
System Reset Default Config Alarm: Typically, during a reboot, the SyncServer applies the cur-
rent configuration. This alarm is raised when the system failed to initialize itself to the current
configuration and it automatically restored itself to the default configuration. The cir-
cumstances are usually caused by missing or corrupted current configuration.

System Log Configuration
Use this page to configure the SyncServers logging subsystem. The SyncServer uses klogd
and syslogd, the standard logging facilities. What is logged and where it is logged is based on
the options selected in this page. A default set of options is preconfigured that should provide
a level of detail sufficient for the majority of applications. Each entry is broken down into facil-
ity and priority, where facility is the part of the system such as the kernel or the application
daemons and priority indicates the severity of the message. The priority ranges from
"Emerg", which represents only very significant events like kernel panics to "Debug", where
even debug messages are logged. Messages are generally logged to different files to allow
easier parsing. The messages file is unique however in that its default configuration captures
all messages flowing through the logging daemons. But, due to the high volume of traffic, it is
cleared at each power cycle or reboot.
Note: Most users should leave the logs configured in the default manner unless directed to
make changes by Microsemi technical support.
Log Types
syslog: syslog holds messages about system level events. Examples of system events are
privilege changes (e.g., sudo) and messages about regularly schedules events such as cron.
auth.log: The authentication log contains entries regarding authentication events from login or
PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module).
kern.log: The kernel log contains entries submitted by the kernel. Examples of kernel events
are network errors or hardware changes.
