Remote Log
Remote Log allows you to forward all logged information to one (or more) remote computer. The type of
information forwarded to the remote computer depends on the Log level. Each log message belongs to a
certain log level, which indicates the severity of the event.
When you configure remote logging, you must specify a severity level. Log messages that are rated at that
level or higher are sent to the log server and can be viewed using the server log application, which can be
downloaded from the web.

alert and critical levels.
