Huawei AR150 & AR200 & AR1220 & AR2200 & AR3200 Series Enterprise Routers Configuration Guide: Example for outputting logs to the log file

  Networking Requirements

As shown in Figure 1, RouterA connects to the FTP server through the network. The network administrator wants to use the FTP server to view logs generated by RouterA and learn operations on RouterA.

  NOTE

FTP cannot secure secure file transfer. SFTP is recommended on networks that require high security.

Huawei router Configuration Roadmap

The configuration roadmap is as follows:

1. Enable the information center.

2. Configure a channel and a rule for outputting logs to a log file so that logs are saved in the log file.

3. Configure RouterA to transfer the log file to the FTP server so that the network

administrator can use the FTP server to view logs generated by RouterA.

  Procedure

Step 1 Enable the information center.

<Huawei> system-view

[Huawei] sysname RouterA

[RouterA] info-center enable

  Step 2 Configure a channel and a rule for outputting logs to a log file.

# Configure a channel for outputting logs to a log file.

  [RouterA] info-center logfile channel channel6

  NOTE

By default, channel 9 is used to send logs to a log file. If the default setting is used, skip this step.

  # Configure a rule for outputting logs to a log file.

[RouterA] info-center source ip channel channel6 log level warning

  Step 3 Configure RouterA to transfer the log file to the FTP server.

# Log in to the FTP server.

<RouterA> ftp 10.1.1.1

Trying 10.1.1.1 ...

Press CTRL+K to abort

Connected to 10.1.1.1.

220 WFTPD 2.0 service (by Texas Imperial Software) ready for new user

User(10.1.1.1:(none)):huawei

331 Give me your password, please

Enter password:

230 Logged in successfully

# Configure RouterA to transfer the log file to the FTP server.

[RouterA-ftp] put sd1:/logfile/log.log

200 PORT command okay

150 "D:\UPDATE\log.log" file ready to receive in ASCII mode

226 Transfer finished successfully.

FTP: 2761463 byte(s) sent in 26.062 second(s) 105.95Kbyte(s)/sec.

[RouterA-ftp] quit

  Step 4 Verify the configuration.

The device supports two power-on and power-off modes: automatic and manual.

1 In automatic mode, the interface power supply priority can be configured as critical, high, or low. When the remaining power is insufficient, PDs with higher power supply priority

are first provided with power.

2 In manual mode, you can power on or power off the specified interface as required. When the remaining power is insufficient, PDs cannot be powered on.

Besides powering on PDs in the automatic and manual modes, the interface PoE power

management provides the following functions:

3 Configuring the power-on and power-off time range.

4 Being compatible with non-standard PDs.

  Procedure

1 Configure the PoE power management mode.

1. Run:

system-view

Huawei AR150&200&1200& AR2200 & AR3200 Series Enterprise

Routers

Configuration Guide - Device Management 8 PoE Configuration

The system view is displayed.

  2. Run:

poe power-management { auto | manual } slot slot-id

The PoE power management mode is set.

By default, the device uses the automatic power management mode.

– In automatic mode, configure the power supply priority of the interface. The device

powers on or powers off PDs connected to an interface based on the power supply

priority of the interface.

a. Run:

interface interface-type interface-number

The interface view is displayed.

b. Run:

poe priority { critical | high | low }

The power supply priority of the interface is set.

The priorities in descending order are critical, high, and low.

By default, the power supply priority of an interface is low.

– In manual power management mode, PDs connected to each interface are manually

powered on or powered off. In manual mode, you can select some PDs to power

on or power off as required.

a. Run:

system-view

The system view is displayed.

b. Run:

poe { power-on | power-off } interface interface-type interfacenumber

The PD connected to an interface is powered on or powered off manually.

  2 (Optional) Set the power-off time range of a PoE interface.

PDs connected to an interface do not keep working. You can set the power-off time range

of a PoE interface so that it can automatically power off when it is idle to save energy.

1. Run:

system-view

The system view is displayed.

  2. Run:

time-range time-name { start-time to end-time days | from time1 date1

[ to time2 date2 ] }

A power-off time range of PoE is defined.

  3. Run:

interface interface-type interface-number

The interface view is displayed.

  4. Run:

poe power-off time-range time-range-name

A configured PoE power-off time range is applied to an interface.

  3 (Optional) Configure the device to be compatible with non-standard PDs

When a non-standard PD is connected to the device, the device cannot detect the proper

resistance and cannot identify the PD. When compatibility check is enabled, the device can detect and provide power for the PD that does not comply with the 802.3af or 802.3at

standard.

1. Run:

system-view

The system view is displayed.

  2. Run:

interface interface-type interface-number

The interface view is displayed.

  3. Run:

poe legacy enable

The interface is enabled to check compatibility of non-standard PDs

By default, compatibility detection for PDs is disabled on an interface.

8 Run the display poe power { slot slot-id | interface interface-type interface-number }

command to view the current power of the interface.

9 Run the display poe power-state { slot slot-id | interface interface-type interfacenumber

} command to view the PoE power supply status on the interface.

According to different brand, router AR1200 can be divide into variety of models, which one is what we need best? Now, here are the tips for you to choose a suitable router.

First, the broadband router, generally divided into 150M and 450M, of course, choose the 450M router will be better.

Second, the wireless router's price is more expensive than the wired router, because our mobile phone, laptop computer and wireless terminal equipment be connected by WIFI.So don't have wireless function wired router is seldom considered.

Then there is the wireless switch wireless router, this is generally prevent loiter net used,with wireless switch or wireless router, a switch can be opened or closed according to thewireless radio.

Then there is the said wireless signal strength. When obstacles connection distance and the middle of the lot, then the signal is not so good.

Then said is the WDS function. Basic now most routers AR3200 support wireless bridging function,according to your needs, you can observe your router is provided with this function, is what we call the WDS function:

Finally is the router and the speed limit traffic function. Some routers can support to limit the flow according to the agreement and other methods, and other methods, this is according to their own needs.
