Logging of System Events. MultiTech has built SysLog Server functionality
into the software of the MultiVOIP units. SysLog is a de facto standard for
logging events in network communication systems.
The SysLog Server resides in the MultiVOIP unit itself. To implement this
functionality, you will need a SysLog client program (sometimes referred to as
a “daemon”). SysLog client programs, both paid and freeware, can be obtained
from Kiwi Enterprises, among other firms. See www.kiwisyslog.com. SysLog
client programs essentially give you a means of structuring console messages
for convenience and ease of use.
MultiTech Systems does not endorse any particular SysLog client program.
SysLog client programs by any qualified provider should suffice for use with
MultiVOIP units. Kiwi’s brief description of their SysLog program indicates
the typical scope of such programs. “Kiwi Syslog Daemon is a freeware
Syslog Daemon for the Windows platform. It receives, logs, displays and
forwards Syslog messages from hosts such as routers, switches, Unix hosts and
any other syslog enabled device. There are many customizable options
available.”
