Configuring System Information

UDP Port (1

65535) — Sets the UDP port from which the logs are sent. The default value is 514.

Facility — A user-defined application from which system logs are sent to the remote server. Only one

facility can be assigned to a single server. If a second facility level is assigned, the first facility level is

overridden. All applications defined for a device use the same facility on a server. The possible field

values are from

Local 0 to Local 7.

Description — Sets the server description. The maximum length is 64 characters.

Severity — Selects the log severity. Selecting a severity level automatically selects all higher severity

levels.

Remove Log Server — Removes a server from the Log Server

list. Checking the check box removes the

server from the list. Leaving the box unchecked maintains the server in the list.

The Remote Log Server Settings

page also contains a severity list. The severity definitions are the same

as the severity definitions on the RAM Log Table page.

1. Open the Remote Log Server Settings page.
2. Define the UDP Port, Facility, and Description fields.
3. Select the log type and log severity by using the Log Parameters

The log settings are saved, and the device is updated.

Adding a New Server

1. Open the Remote Log Server Settings page.
2. Click Add to display the Add Remote Log Server

page.

Note: Before adding a new server, determine the IP address of the remote log server.
