 If MQTT isn't working in docker try using the IP of the device hosting the MQTT server instead of `localhost`, `127.0.0.1`, or `mosquitto.ix-mosquitto.svc.cluster.local`.
 
 This is because, by default, Frigate does not run in host mode so localhost points to the Frigate container and not the host device's network. 
+
+### How can I view the Frigate log files without using the Web UI?
+
+Frigate manages logs internally as well as outputs directly to Docker via standard output. To view these logs using the CLI, follow these steps:
+* Open a terminal or command prompt on the host running your Frigate container.
+* Type the following command and press Enter:
+  ```
+  docker logs -f frigate
+  ```
+  This command tells Docker to show you the logs from the Frigate container.
+  Note: If you've given your Frigate container a different name, replace "frigate" in the command with your container's actual name. The "-f" option means the logs will continue to update in real-time as new entries are added. To stop viewing the logs, press `Ctrl+C`. If you'd like to learn more about using Docker logs, including additional options and features, you can explore Docker's [official documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/logs/).
+
+Alternatively, when you create the Frigate Docker container, you can bind a directory on the host to the mountpoint `/dev/shm/logs` to not only be able to persist the logs to disk, but also to be able to query them directly from the host using your favorite log parsing/query utility.
