The kernel log is a comprehensive list of system events and kernel messages such 
as error conditions.

You cannot view kernel log messages directly from the configuration utility. You 
must first set up a remote log server to receive and capture logs. Then you can 
configure the WAP device to log to the remote log server. The WAP device 
supports up to two remote log servers.

The remote log server collection for the syslog messages provides these features:

•

Allows aggregation of syslog messages from multiple APs.

•

Stores a longer history of messages than is kept on a single WAP device.

•

Triggers scripted management operations and alerts.

To specify a host on your network to serve as a remote log server:

Select Administration > Log Settings.

In the Remote Log Server Table, configure these parameters :

•

Remote Log Server—Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address, or the host name of the 
remote log server.
