3.2.4. System Log 

 

Fig. 31. System log. 

The system log shows events happening inside the gateway since the gateway starts up. The logged 
information is useful for troubleshooting purposes. For example, if the password configured for 
PPPoE is incorrect, this error can be easily spotted by inspecting the system log. The system events 
are divided into several categories, and you can select which categories of events to log. See Section 
3.7.2.3 for more information. 

3.2.5. Outgoing and Incoming User Traffic Sessions 

 

Fig. 32. Latest outgoing user traffic sessions. 

 

Fig. 33. Latest incoming user traffic sessions. 

On this page, latest 50 outgoing and 50 incoming user traffic sessions are shown for monitoring net-
work activity.
