File (No Switching)
8950 AAA writes the log messages to a file. The contents of the log file is plain text. This
type does not allow any file switching, which means that it will continue to write to the
same file. There is an option to delete the contents of the file each time 8950 AAA is
started. The properties tab for this destination type is shown in
