If you reconfigure the certificate assigned to a crypto security profile, Syslog TLS servers are automatically updated to use
new certificate-key pair.
If you delete a certificate from a configured crypto security profile, system logging over TLS fails. A host certificate is
required for the protocol exchange with an external device.
4. Configure a remote TLS server to receive system messages in CONFIGURATION mode.
