Configuring Log Settings

16.2
To change your Contivity 221's log settings, click Logs, then the Log Settings tab. The screen
appears as shown.
Use the Log Settings screen to configure to where the Contivity 221 is to send logs; the schedule
for when the Contivity 221 is to send the logs and which logs and/or immediate alerts the
Contivity 221 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 View Log 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.
