Enabling Window Tabs per Device

By default, Syslog Viewer uses window tabs to separate syslog messages captured from different devices (IP addresses). Each tab displays syslog messages captured from the specific device.

You can disable window tabs so that Syslog Viewer displays all syslog messages in a single window, even if they were captured from more than one device.

Using tabs can be useful, for example, in the following cases:

■

Opening a syslog file that contains syslog messages captured from multiple devices.

■

Capturing syslog messages from multiple devices.

The following figure shows an example of an opened syslog file that contains syslog messages captured from two devices - 10.15.12.1 and 10.30.33.241. Syslog Viewer creates a tab for each device and displays the syslog messages under the respective tab:
