Logging Configuration
The AP35xx provides the capability for periodically logging system events that prove useful in
assessing the throughput and performance of the AP35xx or troubleshooting problems on the AP35xx
managed Local Area Network (LAN). Use the Logging Configuration screen to set the desired logging level
(standard syslog levels) and view or save the current AP35xx system log.
To configure event logging for the AP35xx:
1 Select System Configuration > Logging Configuration from the AP35xx menu tree.
2 Configure the Log Options field to save event logs, set the log level and optionally port the AP35xx’s
log to an external server.
View Log Click View to save a log of events retained on the AP35xx.
The system displays a prompt requesting the administrator
password before saving the log. After the password has
been entered, click Get File to display a dialogue with
buttons to Open or Save the log.txt file. Click Save and
specify a location to save the log file.
Use the WordPad application to view the saved log.txt file
on a Microsoft Windows based computer. Do not view the
log file using Notepad, as the Notepad application does
not properly display the formatting of the AP35xx log file.
Log entries are not saved in the AP35xx. While the AP is
in operation, log data temporarily resides in memory. AP
memory is completely cleared each time the AP reboots.
