Syslog configuration

Via the SpeedTouch™ Syslog page, you can also configure the SpeedTouch™
syslog daemon to send syslog messages to one or more particular host IP
addresses.

This allows dedicated syslog software on the host to collect SpeedTouch™syslog
messages for immediate notification, future reference, and event archiving.

On the SpeedTouch™ Syslog page, select the Configuration tab:

The table allows you to overview the hosts configured to receive syslog messages
generated by the SpeedTouch™.

To add a host, you must type one or more (comma-separated) priority facility (type
all to send all facilities), select a priority severity, specify the host’s IP address and
click Add.

To enable forwarding of syslog messages to external hosts, select Activate. In case
syslog forwarding is enabled, you can disable all syslog forwarding again by
clicking Deactivate. For example, in the figure shown above, forwarding of Syslog
messages is enabled (as the Deactivate button is shown).
