Description
Sets the minimum log level of messages stored in the Polycom RealPresence Group
system's flash memory. DEBUG logs all messages. WARNING logs the fewest number of
messages.
Polycom recommends leaving this setting at the default value of DEBUG.
When enabled, the Log Level feature performs the same functions for both remote and
local logging.
Specifies whether remote logging is enabled. Enabling this setting causes the Polycom
RealPresence Group system to send each log message to the specified server in
addition to logging it locally.
The system immediately begins forwarding its log messages when you click Save.
Remote logging encryption is supported when TLS transport is the transport protocol. If
you are using UDP or TCP transport, Polycom recommends remote logging only on
secure, local networks.
Specifies the server address and port.
