Easy log file question for AP 1200

I am wanting to troubleshoot the last week's log on a AP, but it only shows 12 hours.

What is the config I need to run to save the logs from the last restart to a file on a server?

Thanks for any info.

It is not practical to store that large a log file on the AP due to memory limits. The solution is to configure a syslog server on a PC and then configure the AP to log events on hte server. You can use tftp32.exe for the syslog server function.

setup the syslog server with tftp32.exe

enter "logging "

The AP will log to "local7" on the syslog server.

Thanks for the replies from both of you.

We do have logging facility local0 setup, which I am assuming is just logging on the AP itself.

I will get with the network team to set up a pc as the syslog server and see what happens.

thanks and I'll let you know how it goes.
