Remote Logs
Path: Maintenance > Logs Settings > Remote Logs
Once you have conīægured the type of logs that you want the router to collect, they can be sent to either a Syslog
server or an E-Mail address. For remote logging a key conīæguration īæeld is the Remote Log Identiīæer. Every
logged message will contain the conīægured preīæx of the Remote Log Identiīæer, so that syslog servers or email
addresses that receive logs from more than one router can sort for the relevant deviceās logs.
Once you enable the option to e-mail logs, enter the e-mail serverās address (IP address or FQDN) of the SMTP
server. The router will connect to this server when sending e-mails out to the conīægured addresses. The SMTP
port and return e-mail addresses are required īæelds to allow the router to package the logs and send a valid e-mail
that is accepted by one of the conīægured āsend-toā addresses. Up to three e-mail addresses can be conīægured as
log recipients.
In order to establish a connection with the conīægured SMTP port and server, deīæne the serverās authentication
requirements. The router supports Login Plain (no encryption) or CRAM-MD5 (encrypted) for the username and
password data to be sent to the SMTP server. Authentication can be disabled if the server does not have this
requirement. In some cases the SMTP server may send out IDENT requests, and this router can have this response
option enabled as needed.
Once the e-mail server and recipient details are deīæned you can determine when the router should send out
logs. E-mail logs can be sent out based on a deīæned schedule by īærst choosing the unit (i.e., the frequency) of
sending logs: Hourly, Daily, or Weekly. Selecting Never will disable log e-mails but will preserve the e-mail server
settings.
