Set up a remote log server

You can let the AP send log messages to a remote log server, which is also referred to
as a remote syslog host.
You can also let the AP send the traffic log to the remote log server. (The traffic log is
too large to be stored locally on the AP.)
To set up a remote log server:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or tablet that is directly connected over WiFi
to the AP or connected to the same network as the AP.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the AP.
If you are directly connected to the management WiFi network, you can enter
https://www.aplogin.net.
A login page displays.
If you do not know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the AP on page 24. For
more information about the management WiFi network, see Management WiFi
network on page 43.
If your browser displays a security warning, you can proceed, or add an exception
for the security warning. For more information, see kb.netgear.com/000062980.
3. Enter the AP login password and click the LOGIN button.
The AP login password is the one that you specified the first time you logged in to
the AP. The password is case-sensitive.
The Dashboard page displays.
