Logging Settings

Auto-Logging
Selecting Enable and pressing Save will enable the logging capability which saves periodic and event driven logs to
permanent memory. Technical Services personnel may find such logs useful in analyzing field issues. Selecting
Disable and pressing Save will disable the logging capability. This is the default setting. To make best use of
available memory it is recommended to only enable the logging capability if it is necessary to help diagnose an
issue.
Log File Actions

Log Action
― Store in modem: Selecting Store in Modem and pressing Go will create a current status log, and overwrite any
previously saved log. This action will save a log even if auto-logging is disabled. It is best to save the log
immediately following the adverse event, and before any reboot. This log will contain only information
collected since the most recent reboot of the device.
― Display: Selecting Display and pressing Go will display a previously stored log directly to the web browser. You
can use your mouse to select the text, copy it, and paste it into a text editor to save the log on your computer.
― TFTP to Server: Selecting TFTP to Server and pressing Go will initiate a transfer of a previously saved log file to
a specified IP address using the TFTP protocol. In order for the transfer to be successful, a reachable IP address
must be entered under TFTP Server IP and the computer at that IP address must be running a TFTP Server
program. Many free TFTP Servers are available for download over the internet. Note that TFTP is different
than FTP.

TFTP Server IP
When selecting TFTP to Server and pressing Go a valid and reachable IP address must be entered here in order to
complete the transfer of the saved log file using the TFTP protocol. In order for the transfer to be successful, a
reachable IP address must be entered under TFTP Server IP and the computer at that IP address must be running a
TFTP Server program. Many free TFTP Servers are available for download over the internet. Note that TFTP is
different than FTP.
