Page 36 Manually Configuring the System Role
To deploy your SonicWALL UMA EM5000 in the Syslog
Collector role, perform the following steps in the appliance
management interface:
1. Navigate to the Deployment > Role page. Under Host
Role Configuration, select the Syslog Collector radio
button.
2. If this SonicWALL UMA EM5000 listens for syslog
messages on a non-standard port, type the port number
into the Syslog Server Port field. The default port is 514.
3. To include the MySQL database on this system, select the
Include Database (MYSQL) checkbox. To use a MySQL
or Microsoft SQL Server database on another system, do
not select this checkbox.
4. Configure the database settings as described in the
Configuring Database Settings section, on page 36.
5. Configure the Web port settings as described in the
Configuring Web Port Settings section, on page 38.
6. To apply your changes, click Update.
To change the settings on this page back to the defaults,
click Reset.
Configuring Database Settings
Database settings configuration is largely the same for any role
when you choose to include the database on that appliance.
For roles that automatically include the default MySQL
database, such as All In One or Database Only, the Database
Type, Database Host, and Database Port fields are not editable.
This is also the case for any role when the Include Database
(MYSQL) checkbox is selected. The Administrator Credentials
fields are displayed only if the role has been defined to include
the installation of the MySQL database. These are not available
when a SQL Server database is selected.
This section describes the options for configuring the database
settings for either the MySQL database or the Microsoft SQL
Server database. The SonicWALL UMA EM5000 can run the
MySQL database, but SonicWALL GMS can also use either a
MySQL or a SQL Server database running on a Windows
Server machine in a multi-system deployment.
Note: If this appliance will connect to a SQL Server system
with a non-default instance name, then the entries will
be different than described in this section. Refer to the
SonicWALL GMS Administrator's Guide for
configuration instructions.
