Device Log
This section shows you how to configure the Device Log screen. This screen may vary
depending on which model you’re configuring. Please see the device’s User’s Guide for more
information about any of these screens or fields.
8.1 Device Log
Use the Logging Options screen to configure to where the device is to send logs; the schedule
for when the device is to send the logs and which logs and/or immediate alerts the device is to
send.
An alert is a type of log that warrants more serious attention. They include system errors,
attacks (access control) and attempted access to blocked web sites or web sites with restricted
web features such as cookies, active X and so on. Some categories such as System Errors
consist of both logs and alerts. You may differentiate them by their color in the Device screen.
Alerts display in red and logs display in black.
Alerts are e-mailed as soon as they happen. Logs may be e-mailed as soon as the log is full
(see Log Schedule). Selecting many alert and/or log categories (especially Access Control)
may result in many e-mails being sent.
To change a device’s log settings, select a device, click Device Operation in the menu bar and
then click Device Configuration > Device Log in the navigation panel. The screen appears as
shown next.
