A CRON job to wget the logs from the device's HTTP server?
Except I do not know enough to make wget do the job.
wget --user=xxxxxxxx --password=xxxxxxxx 192.168.1.1 -o logwb
Produces:
cat logwb
--04:06:09-- http://192.168.1.1/
=> `index.html.2'
Connecting to 192.168.1.1:80... connected.

When viewed in the browser "index.html.2" produces the error msg:
Firefox can't find the file at /root/Desktop/start.htm.
* Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
* Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
wget connects but I don't know how to tell it to collect the log file?
Any thoughts on how to do that?
I don't think wget is the right tool for this; I prefer scp (tunnels
through ssh) or rsync (ditto).
wget needs an ftp or http server at the other side, that has access to
the logs. I'd not ordinarily allow that.
Another possibility is a cron job to mail the logs:
mail -s "Here's today's log" smith#example.com <logfile
