Prerequisites for Remote Logging
To capture Kernel Log messages from the access point system, you must first set up a remote server
running a syslog process and acting as a syslog "log relay host" on your network. (For information on how
to set up the remote server, see
“Setting Up the Log Relay Host” on page 80
.)
Then, you can use the CLI to configure the Professional Access Point to send its syslog messages to the
remote server.

When you start a new access point, the Log Relay Host is disabled. From the above output for the "

•
The syslog server is
disabled

•
No IP address or Host Name is specified for the syslog server.
•
The access point is listening for syslog messages on the default port 514
Enable / Disable Log Relay Host
To enable the Log Relay Host:
USR5453-AP#
