10.3.4 Remote Syslog Notification

Introduction

The SpeedTouch™ can be configured to send all or a selection of generated syslog

messages to a host on the local or a remote network IP address.

This section describes how to configure the SpeedTouch™ syslog daemon to send

messages to a particular host.

Preconditions

The host to send the syslog messages to, should have syslog daemon software

installed for capturing the messages, and a known, fixed IP address.

Syslog host on

the local network

By default, no traffic restrictions apply for the local network. Simply add a syslog

rule via the SpeedTouch™ syslog configuration web page or the CLI. Specify the IP

address of the host, and optionally refine the set of syslog messages to send.

The following example shows the configuration via the CLI for a syslog host on the

local network with fixed IP address 192.168.1.10 to send all generated syslog mes-

sages (all facilities, with severity debug and higher) to:

You can specify one or a selection of (comma-separated) or all facilities.
Specifying a severity actually means to send syslog messages with a
severity as specified, and all messages with a higher severity.
For a priority listing see

“ Syslog priority severities”
