17.1 O ve rvie w
Use the system screens to configure daily reporting and log settings.
17.1.1 Wha t Yo u C a n Do In this Cha pte r
• The Lo g Se tting screens (Section 17.2 on page 157) specify which logs are e-mailed, where they are e-
mailed, and how often they are e-mailed.
17.2 Log Se tting
These screens control log messages and alerts. A log message stores the information for viewing (for
example, in the Mo nitor > Vie w Lo g screen) or regular e-mailing later, and an alert is e-mailed
immediately. Usually, alerts are used for events that require more serious attention, such as system errors
and attacks.
The Zyxel Device provides a system log and supports e-mail profiles and remote syslog servers. The
system log is available on the Vie w Lo g screen, the e-mail profiles are used to mail log messages to the
specified destinations, and the other four logs are stored on specified syslog servers.
The Lo g Se tting tab also controls what information is saved in each log. For the system log, you can also
specify which log messages are e-mailed, where they are e-mailed, and how often they are e-mailed.
For alerts, the Lo g Se tting screen controls which events generate alerts and where alerts are e-mailed.
The Lo g Se tting screen provides a summary of all the settings. You can use the Edit Lo g Se tting screen to
maintain the detailed settings (such as log categories, e-mail addresses, server names, etc.) for any log.
Alternatively, if you want to edit what events is included in each log, you can also use the Ac tive Lo g
Summ a ry screen to edit this information for all logs at the same time.
