Location

Use the Location icon to configure additional sensor-specific location information to include in alert

notifications generated by the appliance. Location values can be assigned to the appliance and to all pods

and external sensors connected to the appliance. Location settings for pods and sensors can be inherited

from their parent pods and sensors. Double-click the Location icon to open the Location Configuration

window.

To change the Location settings, select an appliance, pod, or sensor. Select the Location Data Type and

click Edit to open the Edit Location Attribute window. Enter the new Location value and click OK.

When you finish specifying Location values, click OK save your changes.

Log

The Log icon determines what events are stored and displayed in the Appliance Log. When you select a

Global Level, the appliance saves only events with a log value equal to or lower than the selected

Global Level. A low Global Level setting results in a high logging priority.

By default, all components log events at the level specified in the Global level field. You can specify a

unique logging level for each component. The Component Log Levels available for logging are

determined by appliance model and user access privileges. Some items may not be available on some

models or to some user accounts. To specify a component-specific log setting, select the Level field

beside the component and select the log level for the component.

Note: Use a minimum Log Level of 6 - Notice to ensure that log messages associated with

alerts are recorded in the Audit Trail.

You can configure the appliance to post log data to a remote Syslog server. When the Syslog

functionality is enabled, all events stored in the Audit Trail are also forwarded to a remote Syslog host

for logging to a user-specified Syslog facility.

To enable logging of events to a remote Syslog host:

1. In the Hostname field, enter the IP Address or Hostname of the remote Syslog server.

2. If the remote Syslog server is using a port other that 514 for Syslog communications, enter the

port number in the Port field.

3. Click OK.

Network Interfaces

Use the Network Interfaces icon to view or change the network settings for your appliance. The

appliance includes a built-in Ethernet connection, and by default, there is a single Ethernet Interface.

When you select an interface and click Edit, the Edit Network Interface window opens with settings

specific to the selected network interface.

Double-click the Network Interfaces icon to open the Edit Network Interface window.
