Save logs to a file
By default, the event and system logs are stored in RAM. This means the event and system logs are
lost when the device is rebooted. You can configure the device to store the event and system logs in a
file to help diagnose issues if the device is being rebooted. When enabled, the event log is stored in the
file event.log and the system log is stored in the file system.log.
The maximum size of a log file is 2 MB. When the event and system log files reach this size, they are
backed up to event.log.0 and system.log.0 respectively, and the log file is cleared out.
WARNING! Saving event and system logs to files and keeping them resident for some time
is not recommended for normal operations, as this practice can lead to additional wear to
the flash memory.
