SNMP Trap Settings Remote Syslog Figure 7.
Remote Syslog Logging is a standard for computer data logging. It separates the chassis that
generates messages from the management station that stores them, and the software that reports
and analyzes them. Remote Syslog can be used for chassis system management, security auditing,
generalized information, analysis, and debugging purposes. Messages are added with a facility code
(auth, kern, mail, news, syslog, user, local0, ..., local7) indicating the type of event that generated
the messages, and are assigned a severity as configured in the messages (Emergency, Alert, Critical,
Error, Warning, Notice, Info, Debug). Implementations are available for many operating systems.
Specific configuration may permit directing messages to remote syslog servers.
Enable Remote Syslog in the management station and configure the remote system IP addresses in
CMC Remote Syslog configuration. The port(s) a remote management station is listening for syslog
messages should match the configuration in CMC.
