2.2.8. Advanced Log Settings
The following advanced settings for NetDefendOS event logging are available to the administrator:
Send Limit
This setting specifies the maximum log messages that NetDefendOS will send per second. This
value should never be set too low as this may result in important events not being logged, nor should
it be set too high. When the maximum is exceeded, the excess messages are dropped and are not
buffered.
The administrator must make a case by case judgement about the message load that log servers can
deal with. This can often depend on the server hardware platform being used and if the resources of
the platform are being shared with other tasks.
Default: 2000
Alarm Repeat Interval
The delay in seconds between alarms when a continuous alarm is used. As discussed in
Section 2.4.3, "Hardware Monitoring", the log event messages generated by hardware monitoring
are continuous and this setting should be used to limit the frequency of those messages.
Minimum 0, Maximum 10,000.
Default: 60 (one minute)
