Defining Syslog Servers, Log priorities

Logging Configuration

means “error + critical + alert + emergency.” The priorities shown in Table 97 are listed from lowest (debug) to highest (emergency).

Table 97	Log priorities

Priority		Description
Debug		Detailed processing status. Not recommended during normal operations. The
		volume of messages may negatively affect the performance of the
		management port.
Informational		Information messages that do not relate to errors, warnings, audits, or
		debugging.
Notice		Normal but important events.
Warning		A problem exists, but it doesn’t prevent the appliance from completing tasks.
Error		Error conditions and abnormal events.
Critical		Critical condition, for example the appliance is prevented from accomplishing a
		task.
Alert		Immediate action required. The device will continue to run, but not all functions
		are available.
Emergency		Emergency; system unusable.

Defining Syslog Servers

The ETEP can send log messages to a syslog server. The ETEP does not impose a limit on the number of syslog servers that can be used. Syslog messages are sent from the management port using port 514 in standard syslog format (RFC 3164). When the facilities are displayed at the syslog server, they appear as Local 0 - Local 4, not as ETEP-specific categories such as data plane, PKI, SNMP, or distkey. See Table 96 for a mapping of log facility names to the numeric syslog designation.

When you configure a syslog server, the messages from all of the facilities are sent to that server, according to the configured priority for each facility. You cannot exclude specific facilities from the list.

To define a syslog server:

1Under Syslog Servers, click Add.

2In the Syslog Server window, enter the IP address of the syslog server.

With ETEP software version 1.6 and later, you can use either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses.

3Click OK.
