Working with Event Logs and Syslog Servers

Both the Maintenance > Support Info and Administration > Log pages can be used
to view the AP's current log file text. You can use the former to send the log to Ruckus
Wireless support directly or save it to a local file, and use the latter to configure
automatic delivery of log files to a syslog server.
Enabling Logging and Sending AP Events to a
Syslog Server
If you have a syslog server on the network, you can configure the Access Point to send
the AP logs to the server. You will need to enable logging (if disabled) and configure
the Access Point to send its events to the syslog server.
1. Go to Administration > Log. The Administration > Log page appears.
2. Look for Log Status, and then click Enabled.
3. After enabling logging, configure the following options:
• Syslog Server Address: To enable the AP to send messages to a syslog server
as they appear, enter the IP address of the syslog server.
• Syslog Server Port: By default, the syslog port number is 514. If the syslog
server is using a different port, enter that port number in this field.
4. Click Update Settings to save and apply your changes.
