Enable the log to file option
When the router is configured to log to a file, the log data is stored in flash memory, making it accessible after a reboot of the router. Up to 512kb of log data will be stored before it is overwritten
by new log data. Flash memory has a finite number of program-erase operations that it may perform to the blocks of memory. While this number of program-erase operations is quite large, we
recommend that you do not enable this option for anything other than debugging to avoid excessive wear on the memory.
Use a remote syslog server
The router can be configured to output log data to a remote syslog server. This is an application running on a remote computer which accepts and displays the log data. Most syslog servers can
also save the log data to a file on the computer on which it is running allowing you to ensure that no log data is lost between reboots.
To configure the Intelligent M2M Router to output log data to a remote syslog server:
1. Click on the System menu from the top menu bar. The System log item is displayed.
2. Under the Remote syslog server section, enter the IP address or hostname of the syslog server in the IP / Hostname [:PORT] field. You can also specify the port number after the
IP or hostname by entering a semi-colon and then the port number e.g. 192.168.1.102:514. If you do not specify a port number, the router will use the default UDP port 514.
3. Click the Save button to save the configuration.
