7.4.1 SYSLOG
SYSLOG allows the user to set up a device that collects all alarms, logs and events from any
number of IMACS shelves. This capability delivers on yet another NERC requirement for
logging. Included in the log are not only system events of a spontaneous nature, but also
security events such as login and logout and provisioning changes saved by a user. Any
number of SYSLOG servers exist, many of them free. Most servers allows the user to
configure the device to also generate save files, so that historical events can also be viewed.
