9.13Syslog
The device enables you to send messages about important device-internal
events to one or more syslog servers (up to 8). Additionally, you can also
include SNMP requests to the device as events in the syslog.
Note: You will find the actual events that the device has logged in the “Event
Log” dialog (see page 247 “Event Log”) and in the log file (see on page 239
“Reports”), a HTML page with the title “Event Log”.
Select the Diagnostics:Syslog dialog.
Activate the syslog function in the “Operation” frame.
Click on “Create”.
In the “IP Address” column, enter the IP address of the syslog server
to which the log entries should be sent.
In the “Port” column, enter the UDP port of the syslog server at which
the syslog receives log entries. The default setting is 514.
In the “Minimum level to report” column, you enter the minimum level
of seriousness an event must attain for the device to send a log entry
to this syslog server.
In the “Active” column, you select the syslog servers that the device
takes into account when it is sending logs.
