Add Syslog Server Page
The Add Syslog Server Page contains information for viewing and configuring the Remote Log Servers.
New log servers can be defined, and the log severity sent to each server.
The Add Syslog Server Page contains the following fields:
• Log Server IP Address — Specifies the server to which logs can be sent.
• UDP Port — Defines the UDP port to which the server logs are sent. The possible range is 1 to
65535. The default value is 514.
• Facility — Defines a user-defined application from which system logs are sent to the remote server.
Only one facility can be assigned to a single server. If a second facility level is assigned, the first
facility is overridden. All applications defined for a device utilize the same facility on a server. The
field default is Local 7. The possible field values are Local 0 - Local 7.
• Description — Provides a user-defined server description.
• Minimum Severity — Indicates the minimum severity from which logs are sent to the server. For
example, if Notice is selected, all logs from a Notice severity and higher are sent to the remote
server.
