XV. VigorACS and VigorConnect

DrayTek Vigor ACS is a great tool for provisioning, monitoring, and managing routers, wireless APs, and switches. As part of the monitoring functionality, routers can be configured to inform VigorACS of any administration access to the Web Interface of the router and any configuration changes which are applied to the router. This behaviour is controlled by enabling the CPE notification settings on the router, and any information reported by the router to VigorACS is stored in the CPE Notify Log. This log can be a useful auditing tool for tracking changes that are made to devices.
