Upgrade feature set

You can upgrade your Netopia 4541/4542 by adding new feature sets through the Upgrade Feature Set utility.

See the release notes that came with your router or feature set upgrade, or visit the Netopia Web site at
www.netopia.com for information on new feature sets, how to obtain them, and how to install them on your
Netopia 4541/4542.

Logging

You can configure a UNIX-compatible syslog client to repor t a number of subsets of the events entered in the
router’s WAN Event Histor y. See

“WAN Event Histor y” on page 12-5

.

The Syslog client (for the PC only) is available on the Netopia CD.

Select Logging from the System Configuration menu.

The Logging Configuration screen appears.

By default, all events are logged in the event histor y.

By toggling each event descriptor to either Yes or No, you can determine which ones are logged and which
are ignored.

You can enable or disable the syslog client dynamically. When enabled, it will repor t any appropriate and
previously unrepor ted events.

You can specify the syslog ser ver’s address either in dotted decimal format or as a DNS name up to 63
characters.
