Event control maintains a count of the number of events generated (logged) and dropped
(suppressed) for each application event. The severity of an application event can be
configured in event control.
An event log within the 7705 SAR associates the event sources with logging destinations.
Examples of logging destinations include: the console session, memory logs, file
destinations, SNMP trap groups, and syslog destinations. A log filter policy can be associated
with the event log to control which events will be logged in the event log based on
combinations of application, severity, event ID range, and the subject of the event.
The 7705 SAR accounting logs collect comprehensive accounting statistics to support a
variety of billing models. The 7705 SAR collects accounting data on services on a per-service
class basis. In addition to gathering information critical for service billing, accounting records
can be analyzed to provide insight about customer service trends for potential service revenue
opportunities.
Accounting statistics are collected according to the parameters defined within the context of
an accounting policy. Accounting policies are applied to customer Service Access Points
(SAPs). Accounting statistics are collected by counters for individual service queues defined
on the customer's SAPs.
The type of record defined within the accounting policy determines where a policy is applied,
what statistics are collected and the time interval at which to collect statistics.
The only supported destination for an accounting log is a compact flash system device (cf3:
on all platforms; cf1: or cf2: on the 7705 SAR-18). Accounting data is stored within a
standard directory structure on the device in compressed XML format.
