System Log
The Network Camera features a log function for system messages. These are
system messages about the camera start-up procedure, e-mail deliveries, FTP
uploads, motion detection and more. The camera stores the messages in its internal
memory and displays them on the system log screen. Since memory is limited, the
messages will eventually be truncated. If you need to log all the system messages
on a remote server (e.g., for permanent record keeping of alarm events or for
troubleshooting purposes), you can utilize the remote log functionality.
Enable Remote Log:
Server Name- Type in the network address of the system log server. Enter the address
without any leading characters, such as http://.
Server Port- The standard port for this protocol is 514. If your system log server is set
up differently, you can change the value here.
Current Log:
This text box displays the real-time log of the camera messages. The remote log function
uses the System Log Protocol, which is a standard for forwarding log messages in an IP
network. System Log is a client/server protocol. The System Log sender (the Network
Camera) sends a small (less than 1KB) textual message to the System Log server.
