Reference:Configuration/General/Logging

External logging is disabled as standard (Off). After selection of a log type, logging is enabled, as are the relevant entry fields.

• Off: Logging is disabled.
• TCP: The device transmits the syslog entries using a TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) connection.

- In the Address field, the IP-Adresse at which the TCP connection is to be set up is entered.
- In the Port field, the port to which the connection is set up is specified.

• SYSLOG: The syslog entries are transmitted to a syslog recipient (also referred to as syslogd, syslog server or syslog daemon ), which is then responsible for their further evaluation or storage.

- In the Address field, the IP address of the syslogd server is entered.
- In the Class field, the desired message class that will be responsible for further processing of the syslog entries is entered. The syslog class is a numeric value between 0 and 7.

• HTTP: The syslog entries are transferred to a Web server, where they can be further processed. Each individual syslog entry is transferred as form data to the Web server in HTTP GET format.

- In the Address field, the IP-Adresse of the Web server that carries out further processing of the transmitted data is entered.
- In the Path field, the relative URL of the form program on the Web server is entered.
The device will make a HTTP GET request to the Web server on the entered URL, followed by the URL-encoded syslog entry. If, for example, a page named /cdr/cdrwrite.asp with a form that expects the log message in parameter msg exists on a Web server, then the value /cdr/cdrwrite.asp is entered. The device will then make a GET /cdr/cdrwrite.asp?event=syslog&msg=logmsg request to the Web server.
