Event Log

The Event Log window records all changes to device connections, device modifications, and other relevant information. Depending on the event level, new changes are indicated by the button as they occur. An 'active events' counter tracks how many recorded events are still relevant. Once the condition behind an event is resolved, it is excluded from the counter and its entry in the list is grayed out instead of being removed.

When hovering over the message column in the Event Log, some entries display underlined text. Left-clicking on these messages navigates to the location of the event.

Opening and Closing

Clicking the 'Event Log' button, located next to the main menu in the upper left corner of the application, toggles the visibility of the Event Log window.

The Event Log remains open until manually closed. Switching between the main tabs of the application does not automatically hide it.

Additionally, the Event Log can be expanded into a separate window using the button.

The severity of active events is reflected in the Event Log button:

	No new events recorded.
	New events with severity level INFO recorded.
	New events with severity level WARNING recorded.
	New events with severity level ERROR recorded.

Resolved Events

An event tied to a condition that is later fixed automatically becomes resolved, for example a connection loss that recovers on its own. A resolved event is no longer relevant to the current state of the network, so it stops contributing to the counter shown on the Event Log button. Its entry is not removed from the list of events, but is grayed out to distinguish it from events that are still active.

Levels

All changes recorded in the Event Log are categorized into three severity levels:

INFO - Basic changes or modifications that do not impact system behavior.

WARNING - Potential errors that do not significantly affect system behavior.

ERROR - Errors that impact system behavior.

Export

The Event Log can be exported to a file, which is useful for troubleshooting and resolving issues related to Milan Manager. Selecting the ('Save all events to file') button in the upper right corner of the Event Log exports key session details.

The exported file includes:

• Current event log entries
• Current network state
• System configuration
• Internal Milan Manager logs

When the button is clicked, a time period (All time, Last 24 hours, Last 7 days, or Last 30 days) can be specified for the data to be exported.
