29.3 Log and Trace

There are two logging facilities in the Prestige. The first is the error logs and trace records that
are stored locally. The second is the syslog facility for message logging.

29.3.1 Syslog Logging

The Prestige uses the syslog facility to log the CDR (Call Detail Record) and system messages
to a syslog server. Syslog and accounting can be configured in Menu 24.3.2 — System
Maintenance - Syslog Logging
, as shown next.
