for general users, they may only need or want to learn about error, critical, alert, or emergency
messages only. The default Display Level is Error.
Therefore, when the log level is “Debugging” and the display level is “Error”, the CPE logs the most
detailed message but shows error level data only.
Mode:
You can choose where to store the logs; the options include Local, Remote and Both. Local means
the CPE, i.e., the ADSL Router. Remote means the log server you specified to forward the log
information to. The default mode is Local.
If you choose Remote or Both, you have to specify the Server IP Address and UDP Port, and all the
events will be sent to the specified UDP port of the specified log server.
Note: Display Level only filters for the local side. All the messages will be displayed on the remote Log Server.
Example
Suppose we are going to record the system logs on both the ADSL Router and the Server bearing IP address
10.11.95.2, the procedures below illustrate the situation:
System Log Configuration
1. Choose Enabled Log.
2. Select Debugging as the Log Level, and Error as the Display Level. (Or select other level according to
your needs.)
3. Set the Mode as Both, key in the Server IP Address as 10.11.95.2, and leave the Server UDP Port as
the default value 514.
4. Press Apply to invoke the settings.
