60.2.6 Viewing Syslog Messages

You can receive and view Syslog messages generated by the device using any of the
following Syslog server types:

Wireshark: Third-party, network protocol analyzer (http://www.wireshark.org).
Note:
the debug recording, to view Syslog messages using Wireshark, you must install
AudioCodes' Wireshark plug-in (acsyslog.dll). Once the plug-in is installed, the Syslog
messages are decoded as "AC SYSLOG" and displayed using the "acsyslog" filter
(instead of the regular "syslog" filter). For more information on debug recording, see
'Debug Recording' on page 940.

Third-party, Syslog Server: Any third-party, Syslog server program that enables
filtering of messages according to parameters such as priority, IP sender address,
time, and date.

Device's CLI Console: The device sends error messages (e.g., Syslog messages) to
the CLI as well as to the configured destination. Use the following commands:
•
To start debug recording:
debug log
•
To stop debug recording:
no debug log
•
To stop all debug recording:
no debug log all

Device's Web Interface: The device provides an embedded Syslog server, which is
accessed through the Web interface (Troubleshoot tab > Troubleshoot menu >
Message Log
Version 7.2
When debug recording is enabled and Syslog messages are also included in
