    I have get the direction from cy cybersecurity team to generate critical event log from the wireless controller. Is it possible to generate the critical event log? (simulation). Can someone give some insight.

    Thank you

    I checked on a lab controller, and the only CRIT message that I could find is an expiring/expired certificate:

    Aug 21 22:42:39 192.168.31.16 certmgr[3280]: <118013> <3280> <CRIT> <md7005 192.168.31.16>  Certificate arubalab.com-202410 is going to expire in less than 60 days.

    You may upload a (close to) expirect certificate and attach that to the captive-porta/webui or something.

    Hi Herman,

    Are you referring specifically to the AP license or it can be any certificate?(servercert, publiccert or etc)

    Thank you

    This message is about the server certificate for the WebUI or captive portal. I recognize the name and it's a server certificate that I uploaded myself. Saw other messages on other controllers about expired certificates, so you may even try to upload an already expired certificate, where the message may be only once a day when the certificates are checked. It was just a suggestion, and there may be other or better methods, but I'm just not aware of those.
