Viewing System Log – Remote Side (Server)
To view the system log on the Log
Server (10.11.95.2), a log viewing tool
must be installed.
1. Download the
Kiwi Syslog
Daemon from Kiwi Enterprises.
Kiwi Syslog Daemon is a
freeware Syslog Daemon for
Windows. It receives, logs,
displays and forwards Syslog
messages from hosts such as
routers, switches, and any other
syslog enabled device. You can
choose other logger tools; here,
we use Kiwi for example.
2. Install the Kiwi Syslog server
software on the PC (10.11.95.2).
3. Open the Kiwi Syslog Daemon application. You will get to a screen shown as
follows.
The Date and Time record the logging time. The Priority field shows the log level,
the Hostname exhibits the position of the host, and the Message column displays
the process the description of it-before the colon is the name of the process and
after the colon is the elaboration for that process.
For example, message 1 shows alert level information which is a kernel process
containing detailed intrusion information; message 2 displays notice level
information which is an IGMP process exhibiting that the IGMP function had been
started.
Download the tool from the
Kiwi Enter
p
rises website.
