Logging Configuration

The access point provides the capability for periodically logging system events that prove useful in
assessing the throughput and performance of the access point or troubleshooting problems on the access
point managed Local Area Network (LAN). Use the Logging Configuration screen to set the desired logging
level (standard syslog levels) and view or save the current access point system log.

Select the Enable NTP on access point checkbox to allow
a connection between the access point and one or more
specified NTP servers. A preferred, first alternate and
second alternate NTP server cannot be defined unless this
checkbox is selected.
Disable this option (uncheck the checkbox) if Kerberos is
not in use and time synchronization is not necessary. This
option is disabled by default.
Specify the numerical (non DNS name) IP address and
port of the primary NTP server. The default port is 123.
Optionally, specify the numerical (non DNS name) IP
address and port of an alternative NTP server to use for
time synchronization if the primary NTP server goes down.
Optionally, specify the numerical (non DNS name) and port
of yet another NTP server for the greatest assurance of
uninterrupted time synchronization.
Define an interval in minutes the access point uses to
synchronize its system time with the NTP server. A
synchronization interval value from 15 minutes to 65535
minutes can be specified. For implementations using
Kerberos, a synchronization interval of 15 minutes (default
interval) or sooner is recommended.
