6.7.1.1 Message Log
The Message Log is similar to a Syslog. It provides debug messages useful in pursuing
troubleshooting issues.
The Message Log serves the Web Server and is similar to a Syslog server. It displays
debug messages. It is not recommended to use the Message Log page for logging errors
and warnings because errors can appear over a prolonged period of time, e.g., a device
can display an error after running for a week. Similarly, it is not recommend to keep a
Message Log session open for a prolonged period (refer to the Note below). For logging of
errors and warnings, refer to 'Syslog'.
To activate the Message Log:
1. Open the Message Log page (Status & Diagnostics tab > System Status menu >
Message Log); the Message Log page is displayed and the log is activated.

paste them into a text editor such as Notepad. Send this txt file to Technical Support
for diagnosis and troubleshooting as needed.
