NTP Client, Web, Telnet, SSH Server

NTP Client: The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a protocol for synchronizing the clocks of

computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. It can be used to set the

device system time. System Time is reported next to the every System Log entry while registering

system events if Log option is enabled.

Web Server: the following the device Web Server parameters can be set there:

Use Secure Connection (HTTPS): If checked Web server will use secure HTTPS mode. HTTP

mode is selected by default.

Secure Server Port: Web Server TCP/IP port setting while using HTTPS mode.

Server Port: Web Server TCP/IP port setting while using HTTP mode.

Telnet Server: the following the device Telnet Server parameters can be set there:

Enable Telnet Server: Enables Telnet access to the device.

Server Port: Telnet service TCP/IP port setting.

SSH Server: the following the device SSH Server parameters can be set there:

Enable SSH Server: Enables SSH access to the device.

System Log

Enable Log : option enables the registration routine of the system log messages.

Enable Remote Log enables the syslog remote sending function while System log messages are

sent to a remote server specified by the Remote Log IP Address and Remote Log Port.

Remote Log IP Address is the host IP address where syslog messages should be sent. Remote

host should be configured properly to receive syslog protocol messages.

Remote Log Port is the TCP/IP port of the host syslog messages should be sent. "514" is the

default port for the commonly used system message logging utilities

.

Every logged message contains at least a System Time and a Host Name. Usually a
particular service name which generates the system event is specifies also within the
message. Messages from different services have different context and different level
of the details. Usually error, warning or informational system services messages are
reported. The more detailed system messages are reported, the greater volume of log
messages will be generated.
