Checking Log Settings; Defining What To Log - D-Link DWC-1000 User Manual

Checking Log Settings

The wireless controller lets you capture log messages for traffic through the firewall, VPN,
and over the wireless access point. You can monitor the type of traffic that goes through the
wireless controller and be notified of potential attacks or errors when they are detected by
the controller. The following sections describe the log configuration settings and the ways
you can access these logs.

Defining What to Log

Path: TOOLS > Log Settings > Logs Facility
The LOGS FACILITY page lets you determine the granularity of logs to receive from the
wireless controller. Using the Facility drop-down list, you can select one of the following
facilities:
• Kernel = the Linux kernel. Log messages that correspond to this facility would correspond
to traffic through the firewall or network stack.
• System = application- and management-level features available on this wireless
controller, including SSL VPN and administrator changes, for managing the unit.
