The Polycom RSS 4000 system integrates HIDS (Host-based Intrusion
Detection System) to enhance security by allowing the administrator and
auditor to monitor access and modification to the system and files.
The logger utility is activated at the system startup and continually records
system events. The log files generated by the utility contain the following
information:
• Events occurred in system internal modules.
• Administrator activities.
• System login attempts.
• Unusual or malicious activities.
• Operation errors.
All log files generated the day before are automatically compressed into a .zip file
named year-month-date.zip at 00:01:00 (GMT) every day. We recommend a maximum
disk space of 5 GB for log files storage. You are prompted when the system reaches the
storage limit. Auditors can delete logs to free the disk space.
