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 histor y.
■ By toggling each event descriptor either Yes or No, you can determine which ones are logged and which are
ignored.

previously unrepor ted events.
■ You can specify the syslog ser ver’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
repor t 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
