    The system logs are extremely useful for troubleshooting recurring or obscure problems, as they provide a record of all work performed on the system and may shed light on hard-to-spot interactions between seemingly unrelated symptoms.

    At some point, the Central Support Team may ask you to provide the logs of your Bosch IP camera and or Encoder.
    Think of diagnostics logs, config file, maintenance logs etc.

    This article explains you how and where you can get the logs of your camera.
