38 Syslog Server Setup
The COM51 card syslog retains 500 lines of text for review in troubleshooting. Old entries are

There are multiple syslog programs available. For this exercise we are using TFTPD32.
Tftpd32 is a free program you can download at http://tftpd32.jounin.net/tftpd32_download.html.
