Sending the
System Log to a
Remote Server
The syslog protocol allows you to collect messages and events produced
by a wide variety of network equipment in a single place. For instance,
instead of viewing the event logs of several separate AT-8000/8POE Fast
Ethernet switches, you can have those events sent to a single syslog
server on your network. The destination for the events is referred to as a
facility.
