Configuring Web Operations To Report To Syslog - AudioCodes Mediant 800B User Manual


To enable Syslog:
1. Open the Syslog Settings page (Configuration tab > System menu > Syslog
Settings).
2. Enable the Syslog feature by setting 'Enable Syslog' to Enable.
3. Define the Syslog server using the 'Syslog Server IP Address' and 'Syslog Server Port'
parameters.
4. Configure the debug level using the 'Debug Level' parameter. This determines the
level of messages that the device sends to the Syslog server. If set to Basic or
Detailed, you can also configure related features using the following parameters:
•
'Syslog Optimization' (SyslogOptimization): Enables the device to accumulate
and bundle multiple debug messages into a single UDP packet and then send it
to a Syslog server. The benefit of this feature is that it reduces the number of
UDP Syslog packets, thereby improving (optimizing) CPU utilization. The size of
the bundled message is configured by the MaxBundleSyslogLength parameter.
•
'Syslog CPU Protection' (SyslogCpuProtection): Enables the protection of the
device's CPU resources during debug reporting, ensuring voice traffic is
unaffected. If CPU resources drop (i.e., high CPU usage) to a critical level
(threshold), the device automatically lowers the debug level to free up CPU
resources that were required for the previous debug-level functionality. When
CPU resources become available again, the device increases the debug level.
The threshold is configured by the DebugLevelHighThreshold parameter (see
below).
•
DebugLevelHighThreshold: Defines the threshold (in percentage) for
automatically switching to a different debug level, depending on CPU usage. For
more information about this functionality, refer to the parameter's description in
Syslog, CDR and Debug Parameters on page 760.

Configuring Web Operations to Report to Syslog

You can define the operations (activities) in the Web interface that must be reported to the
Syslog server. The following procedure describes how to configure this in the Web
interface. You can also configure this using the ini file parameter, ActivityListToLog or CLI
command, config-system > logging > activity-log.

To define Web activities to report to Syslog server:
1. Open the Syslog Settings page (Configuration tab > System menu > Syslog
Settings).
2. Under the Activity Types to Report via Activity Log Messages group, select the Web
actions to report to the Syslog server. For more information, see ''Syslog, CDR and
Debug Parameters'' on page 760.
