Chapter 19: Using the Telnet Viewer 273
To start dynamic logging:
1. Select Options - Logging - Start from the menu. The Log dialog box appears.
2. The Look in list contains the default log file directory and the Filename field contains the
default log filename. Using this filename format is recommended; however, you may change it
for the duration of this Telnet Viewer session. If you choose to use the default log filename,
skip to step 4.
3. To change the default log filename for the duration of the dynamic logging session, you may
select a directory from the Look in list. The directory list may contain directories and files. To
create a new directory:
a. Click the Create New Folder button. A new directory named New Folder appears in the
directory list.
b. Click the New Folder entry in the directory list to highlight it. Then click the entry again to
edit its name. Type in a new name. Press Enter. The directory appears in alphabetical
order in the directory list.
c. Double-click the newly-created directory in the directory list. The Filename field will now
contain the name of the new directory.
d. Type a new filename in the Filename field. If you enter a filename that already exists, the
new file will overwrite the old file.
4. You are prompted to confirm the directory selection and begin logging. Confirm or cancel the
logging start.
When logging begins, the Logging Status label will indicate Logging.
To pause logging:
Select Options - Logging - Pause from the menu. The Logging Status label will change to
Logging Paused.
To resume logging:
Select Options - Logging - Resume from the menu. The Logging Status label will change
to Logging.
