Remote Log

The remote log feature forwards all logged information to a remote PC. The type of
information forwarded to the remote PC depends upon the log level. Each log
message is assigned a severity level, which indicates how seriously the triggering
event affects router functions. When you configure logging, you must specify a
severity level for each facility. Messages that belong to the facility and are rated at
that level or higher are logged to the destination.

For PPPoE and PPPoA connections, you can select Debug if you want to log the
connection information. This is helpful when trying to debug connection problems.

Table 3-2

defines the different severity levels.
