11.2. Testing Syslog Configuration
After you have congured the Outlet Managed PDU as described in Section 11.1,
the /TEST command can be used to make certain that the function is properly set
up. To test the Syslog function, access the Outlet Managed PDU command mode via
the Text Interface using an account that permits Administrator level commands, then
type /TEST and press [Enter] to display the Test Menu.
When the Syslog Test feature is selected, the Outlet Managed PDU will attempt
to send a test Syslog message, using the current Syslog conguration. If the test
message is not received by your Syslog Daemon, review the procedure outlined in
Section 11.1 to make certain the Outlet Managed PDU and the Syslog Daemon are
properly congured.
In addition to providing a means to test the Syslog and SNMP Trap features, the Test
Menu also includes a Ping command option, which can be used in a manner similar
to the DOS ping command to check to make certain that the unit is communicating
properly. Note that in order for the Ping command to function with domain
names, you must rst congure Domain Name Server parameters as described in
Section 5.9.5.
