Logging
Proceed as follows:
•Using the Configuration Manager (Administration > Logging)
Logging activated
Note the following legal notes before permitting D-channel output via IP.
After permission, every computer within the LAN network can record a D-channel protocol of the PBX without any further password protection.
It might be that the recorded protocol includes the following components:
•Connection data sets with destination, source, and time information of a telecommunication connection
•Configuration data of the PBX and connected phones, as well as the corresponding PINs and passwords
•Address books of the PBX
Before any recording, all participants in the telecommunication connection must be informed that these contents will be recorded and must also be informed who will use the recorded data.
If you want to make the recorded data available to your specialised dealer or to the manufacturer for error analysis, you must make sure that the legal requirements are fulfilled.
Connection data can be recorded with the D-channel decoder PC programme (D-channel output via IP) or on a syslog server. Enter ok in the entry field, to accept the legal notes and then click D-channel output via IP.
Logging system
Connection data can be logged using the D-channel decoder PC programme or on a syslog server configured for this purpose.
Important: If Logging enabled is enabled and D-channel has been selected, anyone within the network can record a D-channel protocol over IP. A D-channel protocol also displays sensitive data, such as call connection data. That is why you should only enable the Logging enabled function if you need to create logs for error analysis purposes.D-channel decoder
Install the D-channel decoder PC programme and initiate logging (see Recording the D-Channel Protocol).
Syslog server
Enter the IP address and the port of the syslog server.
Configuring the syslog server
A protocol can be recorded to log and display control and management information about the connections to the PBX e.g. to display errors. You will thus be able to see the error type, and maybe even its cause, from the list of transferred information.
Requirements:
•Syslog server configured by the system administrator
•Knowledge of the IPv4 or IPv6 address and UDP port number of the syslog server
Syslog server IP
Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the syslog server.
Syslog server port
Enter the UDP port number of the syslog server.
Logging of the connection data will start as soon as you have saved your settings.
