WLAN Appliance - log configuration - Send station session events to NetSight option

[Ronald_Dvorak]

Hi,

how does the controller know about my Netsight = to which IP the station events are sent to as there is no field to let the controller know about my Netsight IP.

Or is the text field just missleading and should be worded "Send station session events to SNMP trap receiver" and the trap receiver is set in the SNMP settings.

Thanks,
Ron

Have you looked in NetSight/Wireless/Clients/Client Events? That's where I get the events. I do have "Forward station session events as traps" ticked, although no SNMP trap destination explicitly configured.

Done some more testing and my conclusion is that you need to set the Netsight IP as trap receiver in the SNMP settings.

No clue where the session events should be visible in Netsight with only "send station session events to Netsight" enabled, I don't see them.

Only if I enable "forward station events as traps" I'd see the events in the Netsight Console traps tab.

Very confusing..... so just enable everything and set Netsigth as SNMP trap receiver to make sure you get the traps.

Could they be sent via the secure connection? That's the only place in my configuration I can see the IP address of my NetSight server in the EWC configuration. I don't have any SNMP traps configured.
