My set-up includes a Linksys BEFSR41 router and a Power Macintosh
running OS X 10.3.5.

I've seen some PC apps for reading and saving the Linksys Log Table but
have not run across one for Macintosh. (I know I can view the Log via
the Linksys web interface.)

Can I do this from the OS X Terminal application using the command line
interface? Or how about AppleScript? Please supply specifics!

On a Mac, does the option in the Linksys web interface in the Log panel
to "Send Log To: 192.168.1.xxx work? Where would the file be saved on
my Mac?

Many thanks!

Jim

You would need an appropriate SNMP Trap Service logger loaded. I use WallWatcher {
http://www.wallwatcher.com/ } but alas, there is no MAC OS X version of this great software.

Visit <http://www.bebits.com/app/2950> for links and instructions for

logging traffic on Linksys routers. I've been using this facility for
more than a year.

I just found this software "linksyslogviewer" . Needs OS X 10.3 and
works on the BEF series of Linksys routers.
Here's the link http://www.linksyslogviewerforosx.com/
It's open source and donationware.
*disclaimer* I just found it today and won't get a chance to install
until the next few days, so how well it actually works is unknown at
this point. I hope it works well, because I've been looking for an OSX
app to do logging!

It should be pretty straight forward. Linksys does its logging in the
SNMP trap (port 162). I sure wish they'd use SYSLOG. This just one of
the many reasons I wouldn't buy Linksys
