Figure 16-21 Standard Output or Standard Error–Properties Tab

Table 16-14

explains the fields and the field descriptions that you will specify in this

screen.

Syslog Server

This log channel destination type sends log messages to a Syslog server. Because of the
way the syslog protocol operates, 8950 AAA cannot determine if the messages are
actually received by the syslog server, or if errors occur while the syslog server is
processing the log messages. Because of this, the log channel defined in the On-Error will
only be used for errors that occur within the 8950 AAA server. The properties and
advanced tabs are displayed in

Figure 16-22

and

Figure 16-23

, respectively.
