Logging
System > System > Logging
The Router can capture and log system activity including interface connection status, internal debugging
messages, critical and emergency logs. It can either store the logs locally and/or send them to external
UDP syslog server for storage and archival purposes. The system log buffer uses First In First Out
(FIFO) mechanism.
Note
• All the logs are lost on Router reboot.
SYSLOG is an industry standard protocol/method for collecting and forwarding messages from devices
to a server running a syslog daemon usually via UDP Port 514. The syslog server on a remote computer
accepts the log messages and stores them in files or prints them. Logging to a central syslog server
facility helps in the aggregation of associated logs and alerts and provides protected long term storage.
This is useful for incident handling, routine troubleshooting and historical analysis.
