About Logging

Logging is useful for troubleshooting system issues, as well as maintaining an audit trail. You can specify what types of events are logged, view logged events by priority, date, or name, and upload log files to a remote host for troubleshooting. GigaVUE HC Series and GigaVUE TA Series nodes provide comprehensive logging capabilities to keep track of system events. Logged events are recorded in a local log file (syslog.log) with date and timestamps indicating exactly when each event took place. You can also configure an external syslog server where the logged events can be stored. You can stream the device logs to GigaVUE‑FM. Refer to Streaming to GigaVUE‑FM.
