System Log

The access point can be configured to send event and error messages to a System
Log Server. The system clock can also be synchronized with a time server, so that
all the messages sent to the Syslog server are stamped with the correct time and
date.

Enabling System Logging

The access point supports a logging process that can control error messages saved
to memory or sent to a Syslog server. The logged messages serve as a valuable tool
for isolating access point and network problems.
