Event Log - Acer ARMC_3P User Manual

96
In terms of the remote activity mechanism the login via RADIUS works similar to
the Remote Console. If there is no activity for half an hour your connection to the
ARMC/3P will be interrupted and closed.
Server
Enter either the IP address or the hostname of the RADIUS Server to be con-
nected. For the hostname DNS has to be configured and enabled.
Shared Secret
A shared secret is a text string that serves as a password between the
RADIUS client and RADIUS server. In this case the ARMC/3P serves as a
RADIUS client. A shared secret is used to verify that RADIUS messages are
sent by a RADIUS-enabled device that is configured with the same shared
secret and to verify that the RADIUS message has not been modified in
transit (message integrity). For the shared secret you can use any standard
alphanumeric and special characters. A shared secret may consist of up to
128 characters in length and may contain both lowercase and uppercase
letters (A-Z,a-z), numerals (0-9) and other symbols (all characters not defined
as letters or numerals) such as an exclamation point ("!") or an asterisk ("*").
Authentication Port
The port the RADIUS server listens for authentication requests. The default
value is #1812.
Accounting Port
The port the RADIUS server listens for accounting requests. The default
value is #1813.
Timeout
Sets the request time-to-live in seconds. The time-to-live is the time to wait
for the completion of the request. If the request job is not completed within
this interval of time it is cancelled. The default value is 1 second.
Retries
Sets the number of retries if a request could not be completed. The default
value is 3 times.
Important events like a login failure or a firmware update are logged to a selection
of logging destinations (see Figure 88). Each of those events belong to an event
group which can be activated separately.
The common way to log events is to use the internal log list of the ARMC/3P. To
show the log list click on the item Event Log from the section Maintenance. In the
Event Log Settings you can choose how many log entries are shown on each page.
Furthermore, you can clear the log file here.
