Server services for the LAN

13.3.3 Settings in the charge module

In the charges module, the online time can be monitored and used to control
call establishment.
Day(s)/Period
The duration of the monitoring period in days can be specified here.
Budget units, Online minutes budget
The maximum number of ISDN units or online minutes in a monitoring
period
The current charge and connect-time information is retained when
rebooting (e.g. when installing new firmware) is not lost until the unit
is switched off. All the time references here are in minutes.
13.4 The SYSLOG module
The SYSLOG module gives the option of recording accesses to the LANCOM.
This function is of particular interest to system administrators, because it
allows a full history of all activities to be kept.
To be able to receive the SYSLOG messages, you will need an appropriate SYS-
LOG client or daemon. In UNIX/Linux the SYSLOG daemon, which is installed
by default, generally does the recording. It reports either directly t hrough the
console or writes the protocol to a SYSLOG file.
In Linux the file
/etc/syslog.conf
directs which facilities (this expression will
be explained later) should be written to which log file. Check in the configu-
ration of the daemon whether network connections are explicitly monitored.
Windows does not have any corresponding system functions. You will need
special software that fulfills the function of a SYSLOG daemon.
