Remote Logging (Syslog)

Remote Logging via Syslog provides the same log level as Device Diagnostics (performed via the Microsoft Teams Admin Center) with some additional information that may be relevant to device issues (not Teams application issues). Device Diagnostics via the Microsoft Admin Center are saved to the device sdcard and collected after the event. When performing Remote Logging via Syslog, the logs are collected in real time.
