3.6. SYSLOG Server Configuration
The STS Series supports a remote message logging service, SYSLOG service for the system and port
data logging. To use the remote SYSLOG service, the user must specify the SYSLOG server’s IP
address and the facility to be used. Figure 3-8 shows the SYSLOG server configuration page of the
supplied Web interface.
Figure 3-8 SYSLOG server configuration
To receive log messages from the STS Series, the SYSLOG server must be configured as “remote
reception allowed”. If there is a firewall between the STS Series and the SYSLOG server, there must
be a rule that allows all outgoing and incoming UDP packets to travel across the firewall.
The STS Series supports SYSLOG facilities from local0 to local7. The user can employ these
facilities to save messages from the STS Series separately in the SYSLOG server.
If the SYSLOG service is enabled and the SYSLOG server configuration is properly set up, the user
may configure the storage location for the system log or port data log of the STS Series as SYSLOG
server. For more information about the configuration of port/system log storage location, please refer
to section, 4.2.11 Port Logging and 6.2 System Logging.
3.7. NFS Server Configuration
The STS Series supports NFS (Network File System) service for system or port data logging
functions. To use this service, the user must specify the IP address of a NFS server and the mounting
path on the NFS server. Figure 3-9 shows the web based NFS server configuration page.
