System Log

Syslog

Syslog is a standard protocol used to capture information about network activity. The Router supports this protocol and can send its activity logs to an external server.

Enable Syslog  Select this option to enable the Router’s Syslog feature.

Syslog Server  In addition to the standard event log, the Router can send a detailed log to an external Syslog server. The Router’s Syslog captures all log activities and includes this information about all data transmissions: every connection source and destination IP address, IP service, and number of bytes transferred. Enter the Syslog server name or IP address. Click Save Settings to save your changes, and then restart the Router for the changes to take effect.

E-mail

You may want logs or alert messages to be e-mailed to you. If so, then configure the E-mail settings.

Enable E-Mail Alert  Select this option to enable the Router’s E-Mail Alert feature.

Mail Server  If you want any log or alert information e-mailed to you, then enter the name or numerical IP address of your SMTP server. Your ISP can provide you with this information.

Send E-mail to  Enter the e-mail address that will receive your log files. If you do not want copies of the log information e-mailed to you, then leave this field blank.

Enable E-Mail Authentication  Select this option to enable the Router’s E-Mail Authentication feature.

User Name  Enter the user name for authentication.

Password  Enter the password for authentication.

Log Queue Length  You can designate the length of the log that will be e-mailed to you. The default is 50 entries, so unless you change this setting, the Router will e-mail the log to you when there are more than 50 log entries.

Log Time Threshold  You can designate how often the log will be e-mailed to you. The default is 10 minutes, so unless you change this setting, the Router will e-mail the log to you every 10 minutes.

The Router will e-mail the log every time the Log Queue Length or Log Time Threshold is reached.

E-mail Log Sorting  Logs have different severity levels. The higher the severity level, the more critical the log is (the highest level is Severity0_Emergency). Select the minimum severity level of logs that are e-mailed. Log events with equal or higher severity level will also be
