Changing Log Levels

1. From the top menu, click Controller. From the left pane, click Logs. The Logs Configuration screen is displayed.
   

   

   

   Note

   Syslog event reporting uses the syslog protocol to relay event messages to a centralized event server on your enterprise network. In the protocol a device generates messages, a relay receives and forwards the messages, and a collector (a syslog server) receives the messages without relaying them.

   

   Note

   The log statements Low water mark level was reached and Incoming message dropped, because of the rate limiting mechanism indicate that there is a burst of log messages coming to the event server and the processing speed is slower than the incoming rate of log messages. These messages do not indicate that the system is impaired in any way.
2. In the System Log Level section:
   • From the Wireless Controller Log Level drop-down list, select the least severe log level for the controller that you want to receive: Information, Minor, Major, Critical.

     For example, if you select Minor, you receive all Minor, Major and Critical messages. If you select Major you receive all Major and Critical messages. The default is Minor.

   • From the Wireless AP Log Level drop-down list, select the least severe log level for the AP that you want to receive: Information, Minor, Major, Critical.

     For example, if you select Major you receive all Major and Critical messages. The default is Major.

   • Click Report station events on controller to collect and display station session events on the controller station events log.
   • Click Send station session events to NetSight to forward station session events to NetSight for monitoring. Event information will not be sent to NetSight unless this checkbox is selected.
   • Click Forward station session events as traps to forward station events as SNMP traps.
