Remote Logging

Log Options
Enter a prefix used to identify the source of the message. This identifier is prefixed to
both e-mail and Syslog messages.
Routing Logs
Enables or disables email logs. Choices are:
• ON = enable email logs. Complete the remaining fields on this page.
• OFF = disable email logs. The remaining fields on this page are unavailable.
If Enable E-Mail Logs is enabled, enter the IP address or Internet Name of a Simple
Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server. The wireless controller will connect to this
server to send e-mail logs when required. The SMTP server must be operational for
email notifications to be received.
If Enable E-Mail Logs is enabled, enter the SMTP port of the e-mail server.
If Enable E-Mail Logs is enabled, enter the e-mail address where replies from the
SMTP server are to be sent (required for failure messages).
If Enable E-Mail Logs is enabled, enter up to three email addresses where logs and
alerts are to be sent.
If Enable E-Mail Logs is enabled, select an authentication if the SMTP server requires
authentication before accepting connections. Choices are:
• None = no authentication is used. The User Name and Password fields are not
available.
• Login Plain = authentication used to log in using Base64-encoded passwords
over non-encrypted communication session. Base64-encoded passwords offer
no cryptographic protection, making them vulnerable.
• CRAM-MD5 = a challenge-response authentication mechanism defined in RFC
2195 based on the HMAC-MD5 MAC algorithm. CRAM-MD5 offers a higher level
of authentication than Login Plain.
