Logs

Logs are ﬁles where history of certain events performed through or detected by WinRoute

are recorded and kept. Each log is displayed in a window in the Logs section.

Each event is represented by one record line. Each line starts with a time mark in brack-

ets (date and time when the event took place, in seconds). This mark is followed by an

information, depending on the log type. If the record includes a URL, it is displayed as

a hypertext link. Follow the link to open the page in your default browser.

Optionally, records of each log may be recorded in ﬁles on the local disk

and/or on the

Syslog server.

Locally, the logs are saved in the ﬁles under the logs subdirectory where WinRoute is

installed. The ﬁle names have this pattern:

file_name.log

(e.g. debug.log). Each log includes an .idx ﬁle, i.e. an indexing ﬁle allowing faster

access to the log when displayed in Administration Console.

Individual logs can be rotated — after a certain time period or when a threshold of the

ﬁle size is reached, log ﬁles are stored and new events are logged to a new (empty) ﬁle.

Administration Console allows to save a selected log (or its part) in a ﬁle as plaintext or

in HTML. The log saved can be analysed by various tools, published on web servers, etc.

20.1 Log settings

Log parameters (ﬁle names, rotation, sending to a Syslog server) can be set in the Con-

ﬁguration → Accounting section. In this section of the guide an overview of all logs used

by WinRoute are provided.

Double-click on a selected log (or select a log and click on the Edit button) to open

a dialog where parameters for the log can be set.

Note: If the log is not saved in a ﬁle on the disk, only records generated since the last

logout (or closing of Administration Console), the records will be lost.

Local disk is a disk of the computer where WinRoute is installed, not a computer where Administration Console

is running!
