Asus router doesn't log packets












0















I have Asus WL520-GU router and no matter what option I choose in the "Logged packets type" - there are never any logged packets appear in the system log.



Logging is enabled on a such page:



https://event.asus.com/2009/networks/dummy_ui/en/Advanced_BasicFirewall_Content.html



System log always looks like this (IP addresses removed):



Jan  1 00:00:18 dhcp client: skipping resetting IP address to 0.0.0.0
Jan 1 00:00:18 dhcp client: deconfig: lease is lost

Jan 2 00:46:39 ntp client: time is synchronized to ***


Router's firmware is official and the latest.



Why packets are not logged and how to enable the logging?
