WAN and System Configuration 6-45
You can configure a UNIX-style syslog client for the PC to report a number of subsets of the events entered in
the Netopia D-Series’s WAN Event History. See “WAN Event History” on page 7-55.The Syslog client daemon
program (for the PC only) is supplied as a .ZIP file on the CustomerCare CD.
Select Logging from the System Configuration menu.
The Logging Configuration screen appears.
By default, all events are logged in the event history.
■ By toggling each event descriptor either Yes or No, you can determine which ones are logged and which are
ignored.
■ You can enable or disable the syslog client dynamically. When enabled, it will report any appropriate and
previously unreported events.
■ You can specify the syslog server’s address either in dotted decimal format or as a DNS name up to 63
characters.
■ You can specify the UNIX syslog Facility to use by selecting the Facility pop-up.

The Goodies folder on the CustomerCare CD contains a Syslog client daemon program that can be configured to
report the WAN events you specified in the Logging Configuration screen.
To install the Syslog client daemon, exit from the graphical CustomerCare CD program and locate the CD
directory structure through your Windows desktop, or through Windows Explorer. Go to the Goodies directory on
the CD and locate the Sds15000.exe program. This is the Syslog daemon installer. Run the Sds15000.exe
program and follow the on screen instructions for enabling the Windows Syslog daemon.
