The Add/Edit Syslog Server dialog box lets you add or edit the syslog servers to which the adaptive

logging in the Logging Setup pane and set up the specific filters for log destinations in the Logging
Filters pane.
To add or edit a syslog server, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Choose the interface used to communicate with the syslog server from the drop-down list.
Step 2 Enter the IP address that is used to communicate with the syslog server.
Step 3 Choose the protocol (either TCP or UDP) that is used by the syslog server to communicate with the
security appliance.
Step 4 Enter the port number used by the syslog server to communicate with the adaptive security appliance.
Step 5 Check the Log messages in Cisco EMBLEM format (UDP only) check box to specify whether to log
messages in Cisco EMBLEM format (available only if UDP is selected as the protocol).
Step 6 Check the Enable secure logging using SSL/TLS (TCP only) check box to specify that the connection
to the syslog server is secure through the use of SSL/TLS over TCP, and that the syslog message content
is encrypted.
