Digi CM 8 User Manual

System status and port logging Introduction
Digi CM User Guide 34
Introduction
The Digi CM unit provides four options for saving system and port logs:
▪ A syslog server
▪ An NFS server
▪ A compact-flash card
▪ The Digi CM unit ’s memory
When memory is selected as the storage location, log files are saved to volatile memory, meaning
files are lost when the power is turned off. To use a syslog server, an NFS server, or a compact-flash
card, you must first enable the devices and enter the required information. Compact-flash cards
must be installed before they can be enabled and configured for logging purposes.
System logs track events such as logins, authentication failures, system configuration changes, and
more. Port logs, on the other hand, document the data flow through the serial ports. This chapter
outlines locations for viewing the system and port logs.
