Warning ! This configuration is volatile, the dump.ppp file will be cleared after each Ewon’s reboot.
The dump.ppp file containing the logged data can be used in the following ways:
- it can be sent as an attachment to an e-mail or by using the $dtPP Export Block Descriptor
- it can be found in the eWON FTP root and then downloaded locally or on another FTP folder
- it can be opened to analyze TCP frames
- Log Incoming call
-
When checked the PPP Dump will logs the communication when the Ewon is acting as a PPP server.
- Log outgoing call
-
When checked the PPP Dump will logs the communication when the Ewon is acting as a PPP client.
- Log Size (byte)
-
Number of bytes allocated for logging PPP communications.
When the log is full, logging stops but this does not prevent the Ewon device’s communication.
The maximum log size is 1Mbyte, a Log Size between 50000 & 100000 are sufficient for debug purpose.
- Append to log
-
When checked the log are not cleared betweenconnections and need to be cleared manually.
- Log following connections
-
The Ewon device will log only the (N) next connections, the number of connections will be decreased each time a new connection is logged.
When the last connection has been logged, then the counter will be set to -1 (to prevent further connections to be logged).
When the value of this counter is 0, then all connections are logged.
You can manually set the counter to -1, in order to suspend connection logging, but if you want to release the log buffer, then you should disable the Log Incoming call and the Log Outgoing call options.
In case you want to log multiple connections, you can choose to Append data to the log or not.
