SysLog Server Functions

Beginning with the 4.03/6.03 software release, we have built SysLog
server functionality into the software of the MultiVOIP units. SysLog is
a de facto standard for logging events in network communication
systems.
The SysLog Server resides in the MultiVOIP unit itself. To implement
this functionality, you will need a SysLog client program (sometimes
referred to as a "daemon"). SysLog client programs, both paid and
freeware, can be obtained from Kiwi Enterprises, among other firms.
Read the End-User License Agreement carefully and observe license
requirements. See www.kiwisyslog.com. SysLog client programs
essentially give you a means of structuring console messages for
convenience and ease of use.
MultiTech Systems does not endorse any particular SysLog client
program. SysLog client programs by qualified providers should suffice
for use with MultiVOIP units. Kiwi's brief description of their SysLog
program is as follows:
"Kiwi Syslog Daemon is a freeware Syslog
Daemon for the Windows platform. It
receives, logs, displays and forwards Syslog
messages from hosts such as routers,
switches, Unix hosts and any other syslog
enabled device. There are many customizable
options available."
