Management - Logs
Syslog is a standard for forwarding log messages in an IP network. The term "syslog" is often used
for both the actual syslog protocol, as well as the application or library sending syslog messages.
Syslog is a client/server protocol: the syslog sender sends a small (less than 1KB) textual message to
the syslog receiver. Syslog is typically used for computer system management and security auditing. While
it has a number of shortcomings, syslog is supported by a wide variety of devices and receivers across
multiple platforms. Because of this, syslog can be used to integrate log data from many different types of
systems into a central repository.

The PRESTO Advanced Router supports this protocol and can send its activity logs to an external
server.
