Column Description
Source Device
The name of the device that sent the message. Will be a link if you have visibility to the device. Can be
empty if AirWave could not correlate the source IP.
AP
Contains a link to the APs/Devices > Monitor page for a device other than the source device that was
correlated from some data contained in the message (by LAN MAC, BSSID, or IP Address). Can be
blank, and will only be a link if you have visibility to the device.
Client
Displays a user’s MAC address if one was found in the message. Can be blank, and will be a link if
you have visibility to the user’s AP.
Severity The severity level of the event: Emergency, Alert, Critical, Bug, Error, Warning, Notice, or Info
Facility
Part of the syslog spec - sort of the logical source of the message. From controllers, will always be
one of local0-local7 (you can configure on the controller when sending syslog messages to a
particular receiver which facility you want to use in the messages).
Category
If SNMP Trap: Hardware, IDS, Client Security, AP Security, AP Status, Software, or Rogue Detection.
For Syslog messages, a category is based on the process name on the controller that sent the syslog
message. The categorization for traps and syslog messages only works for events from a Dell
controller.
Message
The raw trap message including the AP MAC Address, time sent, and other information. For syslogs,
AirWave does not display the numbers at the beginning of the message that indicate the severity and
facility. For traps, AirWave will attempt to translate them to human-readable format when possible.
AirWave will not receive processed SNMP traps into the Device Event framework if the AirWave
doesn't have MIB file to translate the trap.
Use the Search field at the top of the column to filter the messages by a substring.
Syslog messages also appear in the APs/Devices > Monitor page for controllers and in Clients > Client Detail
pages under the Association History section.
Using the System > Event Log Page
The System > Event Log page is a very useful debugging tool containing a list of recent AirWave events including
APs coming up and down, services restarting, and most AirWave-related errors as well as the user that initiated the
action. Figure 128 illustrates this page, and Table 104 describes the page components.
