The VDSL Router sends a log to an external syslog server.
Select the Active check box to enable syslog logging.
Select the syslog destination from the drop-down list box.
If you select Remote, the log(s) will be sent to a remote syslog server. If you
select Local File, the log(s) will be saved in a local file. If you want to send the
log(s) to a remote syslog server and save it in a local file, select Local File and
Remote.
Enter the server name or IP address of the syslog server that will log the selected
categories of logs.
Enter the port number used by the syslog server.

Alerts are real-time notifications that are sent as soon as an event, such as a DoS
