The LSMS generates many logs, measurements, and data files on a regular basis. These files are maintained on the LSMS for seven days. Customers can use the data in these files for traffic pattern analysis, identification of various network events, and investigation of problems.
The optional Automatic File Transfer feature enables customers to set up an automatic method of transferring selected files to specified remote sites at a specified frequency. Using this feature can reduce costs and also the chance of user error that could result in missed transfers of required data.
