Kernel Messages" on page 124). The Events tabbed page also lists the most recent events
generated by this access point (see "Events Log" on page 127).
Note: The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway acquires its date and time information using the net-
work time protocol (NTP). This data is reported in UTC format (also known as
Greenwich Mean Time). You need to convert the reported time to your local time. For
information on setting the network time protocol, see Chapter 25: "Network Time
Protocol Server".
11.2.1 Enabling Or Disabling Persistence
Persistence can be enabled or disabled from the Events tabbed page. The persistent log is
saved in NVRAM. Even after a reboot, all persistent logs are still reserved in NVRAM.
Non-persistent logs are only kept during the run-time period. If you reboot the 9160 G2, all
non-persistent logs will be lost.
Enabling Persistence from the Events tabbed page ensures that all logs are written to
NVRAM and even after a reboot, these are recoverable.
Note: It should be remembered that enabling Persistence will result in a continuous write
operation. There is a risk that this will wear out the Flash element of the AP—you
should decide whether enabling Persistence is right for your needs, given that ele-
vated risk.
