Enable Remote Logging

Remote Logging via Syslog provides log-level diagnostics with information relevant to device issues. With Remote Logging via Syslog, logs are collected in real time.

Network administrators can also enable Syslog using Secure Shell (SSH) protocol.

To enable Remote Logging via Syslog:
1. Access the 'Debugging' page (see System Monitoring and Debugging).
2. Tap Remote logging.
3. Configure the Remote IP address and Remote port and enable Remote Logging; the device starts sending logs to the Syslog server.

 

To enable Syslog using SSH protocol, type the following command at the shell prompt:
setprop persist.ac.rl_address <syslog_server_ip>:<port>.
To disable Syslog using SSH, type the following command at the shell prompt:
setprop persist.ac.rl_address ""
