Logging
Functionality
For test and monitoring purposes, the security module has diagnostics and logging functions.
●
Diagnostics functions
These include various system and status functions that you can use in online mode.
●
Logging functions
This involves the recording of system and security events. Depending on the event type,
the recording is made in volatile or non-volatile local buffer areas of the CP 1543-1. As an
alternative, it is also possible to record on a network server.
The parameter assignment and evaluation of these functions is only possible with a
network connection.
Recording events with logging functions
You specify which events should be recorded with the log settings. Here you can configure
the following recording variants:
●
Local logging
With this variant, you record the events in local buffers of the CP 1543-1. In the online
dialog of the Security Configuration Tool, you can then access these recordings, visualize
them and archive them on the service station.
●
Network Syslog
With the network Syslog, you use a Syslog server in the network. This records the events
according to the configuration in the log settings.
