Syslog server setup
3
You can configure up to four secure or non-secure syslog servers. When you add a syslog server,
you must specify the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the server. You can also specify the security mode
(secure or non-secure), and the port number on which the syslog server is listening. By default, the
security mode is non-secure, and the port number is UDP 514.
Brocade recommends configuring a different port number for secure TLS connections. You must
also set the same TLS port number on the secure syslog server to receive the log messages from
the switch. For secure syslog to function correctly, you must also import a syslog CA certificate.
Syslog configuration applies fabric-wide.

192.168.163.233 and fec0:60:69bc:92:218:8bff:fe40:15c4 and specifies a port number for
each server. It also adds 192.168.163.235 and 192.168.162.326 in non-secure mode with
the default port value of 514.
