Filtering Syslog Messages and Debug Recordings

The device can filter Syslog messages and debug recording (DR) packets, sent by the
device to a Syslog server and packet capturing application (such as Wireshark)
respectively. This can be useful to reduce CPU consumption and minimize negative impact
on VoIP performance.
You can configure up to 30 filtering rules, each based on a selected filtering criteria (e.g.,
an IP Group). Each filtering criteria can be configured with a range. For example, you can
filter Syslog messages for IP Groups 1 through 4. For each filter criteria, you can enable or
disable Syslog messages and debug recording.
Debug recording can also be filtered using various filtering criteria such as SIP signaling or
signaling and media.

To configure logging filtering rules:
1. Open the Logging Filters Table page (Configuration tab > System menu > Logging
> Logging Filters Table).
