:?: Somebody can help me, please?
I.d like to know how (what syntax) can I monitore packages via CPE Syslog...
One person in my wireless network is sending lots of malicious data, like port scan, etc., and I don.t know how to identify the internal IP.
PS.: I have a server to receive the syslog information, of course.
Thank.s!!
Mauricio

StarOS does not have a syslog facility at this time, however we do have a tcpdump utility on the system that you can use to diagnose your traffic.

:cry: I have a Teletronics CPE version 2.21.3 (build 1697) and there is a "Syslog Service" menu, where we can find "Start/Stop" and "Enable/Disable" at bootup and a "SYSLOGD Server IP Address", wich can be the address of my Linux central server.
Am I right?

Your guess should be sound, though we have not used the TT CPE firmware for some time now, so am not sure if there is any problems with it.

It will not log traffic however, only show the bootup, and the occasional log message from the wireless cards. You should use their built-in utilities, if any (such as ping, tcpdump, etc.) to help in diagnosing your problems.
