Diagnostics Messages concerning system status and problems.
General Any message not in the categories above.
Remote Servers
(#1 and #2)
IP address of the remote server(s) where system logs are stored.
The system log is always saved to local SLC storage. It is retained through SLC unit
reboots for files up to 200K. Saving the system log to a server that supports remote
logging services (see RFC 3164) allows the administrator to save the complete system
log history.
Enable Log Select to save a history of all configuration changes in a circular log. Disabled by
default. The audit log is saved through SLC console manager reboots.
Size The log has a default maximum size of 50 Kbytes (approximately 500 entries). You
can set the maximum size of the log from 1 to 500 Kbytes.
Include CLI
Commands
Select to cause the audit log to include the CLI commands that have been executed.
Disabled by default.

Server IP address of your network’s Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) relay server.
Sender The email address of the sender of outgoing emails. The strings "$host" and "$domain"
can be part of the email address - they will be substituted with the actual hostname and
domain. The default is donotreply@$host.$domain.
Enable Logins Enables or disables SSH logins to the SLC unit to allow users to access the CLI using
SSH. Enabled by default.
This setting does not control SSH access to individual device ports. (See Device Ports
- Settings (on page 94) for information on enabling SSH access to individual ports.)
Most system administrators enable SSH logins, which is the preferred method of
accessing the system.
Web SSH Enables or disables the ability to access the SLC command Iine interface or device
ports (connect direct) through the Web SSH window. Disabled by default.
Timeout If you enable SSH logins, you can cause an idle connection to disconnect after a
specified number of minutes. Select Yes and enter a value of from 1 to 30 minutes.
Note: You must reboot the unit before a change will take effect.
SSH Port Allows you to change the SSH login port to a different value in the range of 1 - 65535.
The default is 22.
Note: You must reboot the unit before a change will take effect.
SSH V1 Logins Enables or disables SSH version 1 connections to the SLC console manager Enabled
by default.
Note: Disabling SSH V1 blocks Web SSH CLI and Web SSH to device port
connections on the Network > Network Settings page. Also, you must reboot the SLC
before a change will take effect.
