Enabling or

Disabling the

Event Logs

This procedure explains how to enable or disable the event logs on the
switch. If you disable the logs, the AT-S63 Management Software does
not store events in its logs and does not send events to any syslog
servers. The default setting for the event logs is enabled.

Note

Allied Telesis recommends setting the switch’s date and time if you
enable the event logs. Otherwise, event messages will not have the
correct time and date. For instructions, refer to “Setting the System
Time” on page 38.

To enable or disable the event logs, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.

2. From the System Administration menu, type 8 to select Event Log. The

Event Log menu is shown in Figure 63.
