ACCESS GATEWAY
64 Installing the Access Gateway
Enabling the Logging Options (recommended)
System logging creates log files and error messages generated at the system level. AAA
logging creates activity log files for the AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting)
functions. You can enable either of these options.
When system logging is enabled, the standard SYSLOG protocol (UDP) is used to send all
message logs generated by the Access Gateway to the specified server.
1. Enter log (logging) at the Configuration menu. The system displays the current logging
status (enabled or disabled).
2. Enable or disable the system and/or AAA logging options, as required. If you enable either
option, go to Step 3, otherwise logging is disabled and you can terminate this procedure.
3. Assign a valid ID number (0-7) to each server.
4. Enter the IP addresses to identify the location of the system and AAA SYSLOG servers on
the network (the default for both is 0.0.0.0).
Although the AAA and billing logs can go to the same server, we recommend that
they have their own unique server ID number assigned (between 0 and 7). When
managing multiple properties, the properties are identified in the log files by their
IP addresses.
