Working with Log Outputs
Instead of checking the log files on each individual switch, you can create
an output definition that defines the events that are sent to a syslog server.
From this central point, you can monitor all the AT-9400 Series switches in
your network. This is called a log output file. For more information about
log output files, refer to Chapter 13, “Event Logs and Syslog Servers,” in
the AT-S63 Management Software Menus Interface User’s Guide.
This section contains the following topics:
