freeView IP 100 User’s Manual

NFS Logging enabled: If this option is selected, the freeView IP 100 will export the log

information to a directory or static link on an NFS server. To write log data from more than one

freeView IP 100 to the same NFS share, a unique file name must be defined for each device.

Once the NFS settings are complete, click the “Apply” button. The NFS share will be mounted

immediately. If the NFS share and the NFS server are not available, an error message will

appear.

Note: Unlike the internal log file, the size of the NFS log file is not limited by the device. Every log

event will be appended to the end of the file so it will grow continuously. Remember to clean out

old log entries from the file regularly.

SMTP Logging enabled: If this option is selected, the freeView IP 100 will e-mail the log to an

e-mail address specified in the Sender Email Address field. These e-mails contain the same

information as the internal log file and the mail subject is filled with the event group of the

occurred log event. In order to use this feature, an SMTP server must be specified which is

accessible by the device and does not require authentication. The information should be entered

in the following format:

<serverip>:<port>

SNMP Logging enabled: If this option is selected, the freeView IP 100 will send an SNMP trap

to a specified destination IP address every time a log event occurs. If the receiver requires a

community string, it can be set in the appropriate text field. Most of the event traps only contain

one descriptive string with all information about the log event. Only authentication and host

power events have their own trap class that consists of several fields with detailed information

about the event. A third party SNMP monitor is required to receive the traps.
