Configuration Instructions

Follow these steps to enable the AP's syslog features:
1. Login to the AP's Web browser interface.
2. Click PublicSpace > Logging.
3. Place a check mark in the Enable System Log box to enable the logging of system message.
4. Place a check mark in the Enable AAA Log box to enable the logging of AAA events.
NOTE: You can enable either or both of these log types.
5. Select a System Log Number (if you enabled System Log).
• The default value is 2 (LOG_CRIT and higher).
• You may want to set this to 7 so you receive all messages if this is the first time you are enabling this
feature. If this generates too many messages you can always change the priority level at a later date.
6. Select an AAA Log Number (if you enabled AAA Log).
• The default value is 3 (LOG_ERR and higher).
• You may want to set this to 7 so you receive all messages if this is the first time you are enabling this
feature. If this generates too many messages you can always change the priority level at a later date.
NOTE: The Log Number (between 0 and 7) corresponds to an event priority level. The AP will send event
messages to the Syslog server that correspond to the selected priority and above. For example, if set to 6,
the AP will transmit event messages labeled priority 0 to 6 to the Syslog server(s).
7. Enter the IP address of the server that will receive the System Log messages in the System Log Server IP
field (if you enabled System Log).
8. Enter the IP address of the server that will receive the AAA Log messages in the AAA Log Server IP field (if
you enabled AAA Log).
NOTE: The servers you specify must be running a Syslog program to properly log the messages. Also, you can
send both message types to the same server, if necessary (although you may find it difficult to sort
through a single log file that contains both types of messages).
9. Click OK.
