Saving logs to the log file
Before logs are saved to the log file, they are output to a temporary buffer called the log file buffer. Do
not confuse the log file buffer with log buffer, which is an independent log output destination.
By default, the log file feature saves logs from the log file buffer to the log file every 24 hours. You can
adjust the saving interval or manually save logs to the log file. After saving logs to the log file, the
system clears the log file buffer.
The log file has a maximum capacity. When the maximum capacity is reached, the system will
replace earliest logs with new logs.
