Configuring a Syslog server
A Syslog server is a remote server that receives logging messages using the Syslog protocol.
This enables storage of large log files, which you can use to generate reports.
Defining Syslog servers
You can define up to three Syslog servers.
1. Define the Syslog server by entering
set logging server
followed by the IP address
of the server. For example:
2. Enable the Syslog server by entering
set logging server enable
followed by the IP
address of the Syslog server. When you define a new Syslog server, it is defined as
disabled, so you must use this command in order to enable the server. For example:
3. Optionally, define an output facility for the Syslog server by typing the
set logging
server facility
command, followed by the name of the output facility and the IP
address of the Syslog server. If you do not define an output facility, the default local7
facility is used. For example:

● auth
