4.4 SysLog/Mail Alert Setup
SysLog is a popular utility in Unix world. To monitor router activity, you can run a SysLog
Daemon to capture all activities from the router. This Daemon program can run on a local PC
or a remote one elsewhere on the Internet. In addition, the Vigor routers provide the Mail Alert
facility so that the SysLog messages can be packed as an e-mail for someone who wants to
receive these messages. In the following, we explain how to setup the SysLog and mail alert
functions.
