See the release notes that came with your router or feature set upgrade, or visit the Netopia Web site at
www.netopia.com for information on new feature sets, how to obtain them, and how to install them on your
Netopia 4541/4542.
Logging
You can configure a UNIX-compatible syslog client to report a number of subsets of the events entered in the
router’s WAN Event History. See “WAN Event History” on page 12-5.
The Syslog client (for the PC only) is available on the Netopia CD.
Select Logging from the System Configuration menu.
The Logging Configuration screen appears.
By default, all events are logged in the event history.
By toggling each event descriptor to either Yes or No, you can determine which ones are logged and which
are ignored.
You can enable or disable the syslog client dynamically. When enabled, it will report any appropriate and
previously unreported events.
You can specify the syslog server’s address either in dotted decimal format or as a DNS name up to 63
characters.
