Syslog Servers

The Syslog Servers tab allows you to add or maintain syslog servers that the Event Log Forwarder program forwards log messages to.

For example, the following image displays the setup of two syslog servers in Event Log Forwarder:

• The Alpha Syslog Server has been added using a local host IP address and UDP port 468.
• The Beta Syslog Server has been added using the host name and TCP port 514. Notice that the Beta Syslog Server has been disabled in Event Log Forwarder and therefore does not receive forwarded log records.

This chapter provides information relating to the Syslog Servers tab in Event Log Forwarder. The following topics are covered:

• Add a syslog server
• Edit syslog server properties
• Remove a syslog server
