8.9 Remote Server Logging

The remote server logging feature enables an external log server to be used to
capture selective logs from the AVP unit. Four different categories of system log
entries may be selected and delivered to a designated remote server. The four
categories are:
• Logging messages related to alarms.
• Logging messages related to ESAM.
• Logging messages related to SCTE-35.
• User configuration changes made to the system.
