Manage the switch log, console log, and
command log
The switch generates messages in response to events, faults, and errors as well as
changes in the configuration or other occurrences. These messages are stored locally
and can be forwarded to one or more centralized points of collection for monitoring
purposes or long-term archival storage. Local and remote configuration of the logging
capability includes filtering of messages logged or forwarded based on severity and
generating component.
To configure a syslog server and set up remote logging, use the main UI or the CLI. For
more information, see the main user manual or the CLI command reference manual,
both of which you can download by visiting netgear.com/support/download.
By default, the switch log is enabled at the Notice logging level but the console log and
command log are disabled.
To manage the switch log, console log, and command log that are stored locally:
1. Launch a web browser.
2.
In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

3.
In the Login Name field, enter admin as the user name, in the Password field, enter
your local device password, and click the AV UI Login button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.
The Overview page displays.
