10.3 The SpeedTouch™ Syslog
Introduction
Syslog is a basic, uncomplicated, yet powerful method to administer a network
device as the SpeedTouch™. By generating syslog messages, the SpeedTouch™ is
able to inform network managers about the general state of the device and to
record events which can be retrieved for later analysis and diagnosis.
This chapter describes how to use the SpeedTouch™ Syslog deamon.
WELF Compliancy
All syslog messages are compliant with Webtrend Extended Log Format (WELF)
formatting.
The SNMP service
Next to Syslog the SpeedTouch™ supports SNMP for extended device
management.
For more information on SNMP see “10.1 An Introduction to SNMP” on page 134 .
The SNTP client
Because it is not only important to know which events occurred, but also when , the
SpeedTouch™ features an integrated real-time clock. This clock supports SNTP
(Simple Network Time Protocol) synchronization with one of Internet's many
relating NTP servers.
For more information on the configuration and use of the SpeedTouch™ SNTP
client, see “6.2 The SpeedTouch™ SNTP Client” on page 56 .
