Figure 4: Persistent Logging Options; Table 7: Logging Options - D-Link DWL-3600AP Administrator's Manual

Unified Access Point Administrator's Guide
Caution! Enabling persistent logging can wear out the flash (non‐volatile) memory and degrade
network performance. You should only enable persistent logging to debug a problem. Make sure you
disable persistent logging after you finish debugging the problem.
To configure persistent logging on the Events page, set the persistence, severity, and depth options as
described in Table 7, and then click Apply.
Field Description
Persistence Choose Enabled to save system logs to non‐volatile memory so that the logs are not erased
when the AP reboots. Choose Disabled to save system logs to volatile memory. Logs in
volatile memory are deleted when the system reboots.
Severity Specify the severity level of the log messages to write to non‐volatile memory. For example,
if you specify 2, critical, alert, and emergency logs are written to non‐volatile memory. Error
messages with a severity level of 3 – 7 are written to volatile memory.
• 0 — e mergency
• 1 — a lert
• 2 — c ritical
• 3 — e rror
• 4 — w arning
• 5 — n otice
• 6 — i nfo
• 7 — d ebug
Depth You can store up to 128 messages in non‐volatile memory. Once the number you configure
in this field is reached, the oldest log event is overwritten by the new log event.
Note: To apply your changes, click Apply. Changing some settings might cause the AP to stop and
restart system processes. If this happens, wireless clients will temporarily lose connectivity. We
recommend that you change AP settings when WLAN traffic is low.
