Logging

The Telnet Viewer has a logging function that saves the contents of a Telnet Viewer session to a
file. You may enable automatic logging or dynamically start logging at any time. Additionally, you
may pause, resume and stop logging, regardless of whether it was started automatically or
dynamically.

While logging is occurring or when it is paused, a Logging Status label appears in the status panel
at the bottom of the DSView 3 management software Telnet Viewer window.

NOTE: When you enable or disable automatic logging, the logging will begin or end at the start of the next
DSView 3 software Telnet Viewer session to that device. If you change the default log file directory used for
automatic logging, the change does not take effect until the next session to that device.
