Function Description
PPP Connections The PPP Connections log contains detailed information on each
PPP connection made. The data includes the time, date, username
and password.
Anonymous FTP The FTP function on the Digital Sprite 2 is password protected,
however it is possible to disable the password allowing any user
access to the unit via FTP.
If the password is disabled then any user accessing the Digital
Sprite 2 will be logged in the Anonymous FTP log. The entry in the
log will contain the time and date, IP address and port information of
the user.
Illegal File Access If a user tries to access a CGI protected directory or attempts to
locate a non-existent file this will be logged as an illegal file access.
It will log the time and date as well as the IP address, and type of
action.
Telnet / FTP users The Telnet / FTP log details all FTP and telnet connections made to
the Digital Sprite 2.
Both these functions can be password protected by enabling and
configuring the option this log will register all the information on the
User name, IP address of the remote PC, time of transaction when
ever and FTP or Telnet connection is made.
Having this log contain the above information ensures ease of
identification of Operators/Administrators that have logged into the
system.
When this option is enabled it is possible to select View to review
the log.
Archive The Digital Sprite 2 can be configured to manual or automatically
trigger and FTP download of images. These downloads are logged
and stored within the Archive Log for future analysis.
This option allows the log to be reviewed on-screen.
Logfile The Logfile stores all information on every action that is carried out
by the Digital Sprite 2; such as when alarms are received and
actioned, resets, failed outward bound alarm connections, etc.
This is an active file and will be continually updated with the system
transactions. The data will be stored until the log reaches its
maximum size limit (typically 1Mb). The Logfile then writes over the
top of the Logfile Backup and becomes the backup file and a new
logfile is created.
This ensures current and ‘recent’ information is always available.
This option allows the log to be reviewed.
