SysLog Server Functions
Beginning with the 4.03/6.03 software release, we have 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. Read the End-User License
Agreement carefully and observe license requirements. 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 qualified providers should suffice for use with
MultiVOIP units. Kiwi’s brief description of their SysLog program is as
follows:
“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.”
