Saving System Information to a Log File
With the log file feature enabled, the log information generated by system can be saved to a specified
directory with a predefined frequency. This allows you to check the operation history at any time to
ensure that the device functions properly.
Logs are saved into the log file buffer before they are saved into a log file. The system writes the logs in
the log file buffer into the log file at a specified frequency, which is usually set to 24 hours and during a
relatively free time, in mornings for example. You can also manually save the logs. After the logs in the
log file buffer are saved into the log file successfully, the system clears the log file buffer.
A log file has capacity limitations. When the size of a log file reaches the maximum value:
If the device only supports a single log file, the system will delete the earliest message(s)and write new
message(s) into the log file. The directory of a log file varies with the device models. Typically, a log file
is saved in the directory /logfile/logfile.log.
