Overview
About Logging
The VCS provides an event logging facility for troubleshooting and auditing purposes. The event log records information about such things as calls, registrations, and messages sent and received.
The VCS logging facility allows you to:
•specify the amount of information that is logged. This is done by changing the event log level
•copy the event log to a remote syslog server.
About Remote Logging
The event log is always stored locally on the VCS. However, it is often convenient to collect copies of all event logs from various systems in a single location. A computer running a
A VCS will not act as a central logging server for other systems.
Remote Logging
Enabling Remote Logging
To enable remote logging, you must configure the VCS with the address of the central log server to which the event log will be copied. To do this:
•System Configuration > Logging.
You will be taken to the Logging page.
•xConfiguration Log Server Address
Events will be always logged locally (i.e. to the Event Log) regardless of whether or not remote logging has been enabled.
Remote syslog server
Enter the IP address or FQDN (or server address, if a DNS Domain Name has also been configured) of the server to which the log will be written.
This server must support the BSD syslog protocol. It cannot be another VCS.
