Working with Event Logs and Syslog Servers
The AP provides several logging features that can be used for troubleshooting purposes.
Both the Maintenance > Support Info and Administration > Log pages can be used
to view the AP's current log file text. You can use the former to send the log to Ruckus
Wireless support directly or save it to a local file, and use the latter to configure automatic
delivery of log files to a syslog server:
•

• Saving a Copy of the Current Log to Your Computer
Enabling Logging and Sending Event Logs to a Syslog Server
If you have a syslog server on the network, you can configure the AP to send the device
logs to the server. You need to enable logging (if disabled) and configure the AP to send
logs to the syslog server.
1. Go to Administration > Log. The Administration > Log page appears.
Figure 74: The Administration > Log page
2. Look for Log Status, and then click Enabled.
3. After enabling logging, configure the following options:
• Syslog Server Address: To enable the AP to send messages to a syslog server
as they appear, enter the IP address of the syslog server.
• Syslog Server Port: By default, the syslog port number is 514. If the syslog server
is using a different port, enter that port number in this field.
4. Click Update Settings to save and apply your changes.
