ATLAS 550 System Manual - Adtran

Section 5 DLP-13 ATLAS 550 System Manual
Setting up the ATLAS 550 to use Syslog:
1. Log in to the system with maximum rights (see DLP-2, Logging in to the ATLAS 550). Once you have
logged into the ATLAS 550, go to SYSTEM CONFIG/SYSLOG SETUP. Set the options as follows:
• TRANSMISSION: Enabled
• HOST IP ADDRESS: Enter the IP address of the PC where the Syslog host resides
• HOST FACILITY: Specify the facility destination of log events; Options are LOCAL0 to LOCAL7
Setting Up the Syslog Host:
1. On your PC, go to START/PROGRAMS/ADTRAN UTILITIES/SYSLOG. When the Syslog window opens,
you will see LOCAL0 through LOCAL7 listed on the left. This should correspond with the HOST FACILITY
specified in the ATLAS 550. The Syslog program must be open on your PC in order for it to record
ATLAS 550 information. The Syslog files can be viewed through the Syslog window, and they are also
available under the ADTRAN Utilities Folder named LOCALX.TXT, where X can equal 0 through 7. You
can also view the LOCALX.TXT file by clicking on EDIT LOG. Any event logged in the ATLAS 550 event
log (System Status/Event Log) should also appear in the Syslog.
