Configuring a syslog IP address
The syslog IP represents the IP address of the server that is running the syslog process. The syslog
daemon reads and forwards system messages to the appropriate log files and/or users, depending
on the system configuration. When one or more IP addresses are configured, the switch forwards
all error log entries to the syslog on the specified servers. Up to six servers are supported. See
Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide for more information on configuring the syslog daemon.
1. Open the Switch Administration window as described on page 31.
2. Click the Network tab (see Figure 17).
