Syslog section
You can enable the router to send detailed log files to your syslog server when
events are logged.
• Enable Syslog: Syslog is an industry-standard protocol used to capture
information about network activity. When this feature is enabled, the router
will send all log activities, including every source/destination IP address
and service, to syslog server. Check the box to enable syslog. Uncheck the
box to disable this feature.
• Syslog Server: Enter the Syslog server name or IP address. Restart the
RV0xx for the change to take effect.

alerts to the specified email address. Uncheck the box to disable this
feature.

• Log Queue Length: Specify the number of log entries to include in the
email. The default is 50.
