The Syslog tab allows the user to configure logging messages to be sent to a syslog host. If the Host IP address is 0.0.0.0, no syslog host is configured, otherwise log messages are sent to the syslog server at a specified IP address and port.

To setup the syslog host:

Step 1 In the Host IP dialog box, enter the IP address of the syslog host where the log files are to be saved. Step 2 Click the Apply button to save the IP address.
