Buffered Log
The log messages the device generates in response to events, faults, errors, and configuration changes are
stored locally on the device in the RAM (cache). This collection of log files is called the RAM log or buffered
log. When the buffered log file reaches the configured maximum size, the oldest message is deleted from the
RAM when a new message is added. If the system restarts, all messages are cleared.
