Three switches can be used with viewlog:
# viewlog -all|-num <#events> |-fifo
The -all switch displays the entire event log, 20 events at a
time. You can specify the number of events to display with the
-num switch. By default, viewlog displays log messages from
newest to oldest. You can reverse the order with the
-fifo
(first-in, first-out) switch, which displays the log, 20 events at a
time, in reverse chronological order.
Strike any key to scroll through
viewlog output. Strike Ctrl-C to
exit
viewlog.
A
set usb-logging command, which enables logging to an
external USB device, is present only on ES820 and ES520
Mesh Points, which are equipped with USB interfaces. The
function is intended for use only in cooperation with Fortress
Technical Support. Leave
set usb-logging disabled (the
default), except as directed by a Fortress representative.
6.7 Support Package Files
To assist in diagnosing a problem with the Mesh Point, Fortress
Technical Support may request that you generate a diagnostics
file.
Diagnostics files encrypt the information collected from the
Mesh Point, so the file can be securely sent as an e-mail
attachment.
Create a diagnostics file with the
support command:
# support -f <ftp://ftp.server.com/pathFORsupport.pkg>
-p
<filePassword> -u <FTPloginUsername> : <UserPassword> -nocore
You must specify, using the -f switch, a valid path to a network
FTP server on which to download the
support.pkg file, and,
with the
-p switch, a password for the file consisting of 1–20
alphanumeric characters and/or keyboard symbols. Specify
valid log-in credential for the FTP server, with the
-u switch, in
the format:
username:password.
The
-nocore switch omits core files from the support package.
Do not use this switch unless instructed to do so by Fortress
Technical Support.
