ProSAFE 10-Gigabit Smart Managed Switch XS728T and XS748T User Manual
Configure and View Logs
The switch generates messages in response to events, faults, or errors occurring on the
platform as well as changes in configuration or other occurrences. These messages are
stored locally and can be forwarded to one or more centralized points of collection for
monitoring purposes or long-term archival storage. Local and remote configuration of the
logging capability includes filtering of messages logged or forwarded based on severity and
generating component.
From the Monitoring > Logs menu, you can access links to the features described following
sections:
• Manage the Buffered Logs on page 319
• Manage the Flash Log on page 321
• Manage the Server Log on page 323
• View the Trap Logs on page 325
Manage the Buffered Logs
The buffered log stores messages in RAM memory based on the settings for message
component and severity. You can set the administrative status and behavior of logs in the
system buffer. These log messages are cleared when the switch reboots.
To manage and view the buffered logs:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Change the Default IP Address of the
Switch on page 10.
The login window opens.

80–110 m). Not Supported is displayed if the cable length could not be
determined. The cable length is displayed only if the cable status is Normal.
