Configuring Web Operations To Report To Syslog - AudioCodes Mediant 800B MSBR User Manual


To enable Syslog:
1. Open the Syslog Settings page (Configuration tab > System menu > Syslog
Settings).
2. Enable the Syslog feature by setting 'Enable Syslog' to Enable.
3. Define the Syslog server using the 'Syslog Server IP Address' and 'Syslog Server Port'
parameters. If communication with the Syslog server is through the device's WAN
interface, the Syslog server can be configured with an IPv6 address.
4. (Optional) Disable the inclusion of the Sequence Number in Syslog messages, by
setting the 'CDR Session ID' parameter to Disable.
5. Configure the debug level using the 'Debug Level' parameter. This determines the
level of messages that the device sends to the Syslog server. If set to Basic or
Detailed, you can also configure related features using the following parameters:
•
SyslogOptimization: Enables the device to accumulate and bundle multiple debug
messages into a single UDP packet and then send it to a Syslog server. The
benefit of this feature is that it reduces the number of UDP Syslog packets,
thereby improving (optimizing) CPU utilization. The size of the bundled message
is configured by the MaxBundleSyslogLength parameter.
•
SyslogCpuProtection: Enables the protection of the device's CPU resources
during debug reporting, ensuring voice traffic is unaffected. If CPU resources
drop (i.e., high CPU usage) to a critical level (threshold), the device automatically
lowers the debug level to free up CPU resources that were required for the
previous debug-level functionality. When CPU resources become available again,
the device increases the debug level. The threshold is configured by the
DebugLevelHighThreshold parameter (see below).
•
DebugLevelHighThreshold: Defines the threshold (in percentage) for
automatically switching to a different debug level, depending on CPU usage. For
more information about this functionality, refer to the parameter's description in
''Syslog, CDR and Debug Parameters'' on page 788.

Configuring Web Operations to Report to Syslog

You can define the operations (activities) in the Web interface that must be reported to the
Syslog server. The following procedure describes how to configure this in the Web
interface. You can also configure this using the ini file parameter, ActivityListToLog or CLI
command, config-system > logging > activity-log.
