Configuring an Output Destination
To optimize syslog message usage for troubleshooting and performance monitoring, we recommend that
you specify one or more locations where syslog messages should be sent, including an internal log
buffer, one or more external syslog servers, ASDM, an SNMP management station, the console port,
specified e-mail addresses, or Telnet and SSH sessions.
