Introduction

This article provides information on how to capture a syslog from selected STB devices via Orchestrate.

This feature is useful for operators who would like to retrieve syslog from selected STB devices for in-depth troubleshooting.

3. From Device Management > Device List, select the device to work with.
4. Configure the settings in the order indicated in the following screenshot and click save to enable device logging. (Click on the "!" mark next to log level or log buffer to understand the options available for those settings if necessary)
