Section 3.6
Managing Logs
The crash (
crashlog.txt
) and system (
syslog.txt
) log files contain historical information about events that
have occurred during the operation of the device.
The crash log contains debugging information related to problems that might have resulted in unplanned restarts
of the device or which may effect the operation of the device. A file size of 0 bytes indicates that no unexpected
events have occurred.
The system log contains a record of significant events including startups, configuration changes, firmware
upgrades and database re-initializations due to feature additions. The system log will accumulate information until
it fills, holding approximately 3 megabytes of characters.
The following sections describe how to configure and manage logs:
•
Section 3.6.1, “Viewing Local Logs”
•
Section 3.6.2, “Clearing Local Logs”
•
Section 3.6.3, “Configuring the Local System Log”
•
Section 3.6.4, “Managing Remote Logging”
Section 3.6.1
