•Informational—Device information.

•Debug—Provides detailed information about an event.

NOTE: When you select a severity level, any events of that level or higher are automatically selected for logging.

STEP 4 Click Apply. Your changes are saved to the Running Configuration.

 

Configuring Remote Log Servers

 

You can define one or more remote log servers that the switch sends Syslog

 

messages to. Use the Remote Log Servers page to define log servers and to set

 

the severity level of the log events to be sent to the server.

 

To enable Syslog operation and configure a remote log servers:

 

 

STEP 1

Click Administration > Remote Log Servers in the navigation window.

STEP 2

For the Syslog Logging mode, click Enable, and then configure the following

 

settings:

 

• Facility—Select a value from the list that identifies the classification of

 

syslog messages from this switch. The meaning of these values (Local 0

 

through Local 7) is determined by the network administrator.

 

• Local Port—Specify the IANA port number for the switch. The default is the

 

well-known port number for the Syslog protocol, 514.

STEP 3

Click Apply.

STEP 4

In the Remote Log Server Table, click Add.

STEP 5

Enter the parameters:

 

• Log Server—IPv4 address or hostname of the server to send logs to.

 

• UDP Port—The logical UDP port number the remote server uses for the

 

Syslog protocol. The default value is the well-known IANA Syslog port

 

number, 514.

 

• Minimum Severity—Only items that meet or exceed this severity level are

 

sent to the remote server. See Configuring Log Settings for a description of

 

the severity levels.

SLM2008PTNA specifications

Cisco Systems SLM2008PTNA is a robust network switch designed specifically for small to medium-sized businesses. It operates with 8 Fast Ethernet ports, providing advanced features and best-in-class performance to enhance your network infrastructure. This model ensures seamless connectivity for multiple devices, making it an ideal choice for environments requiring reliable network communication.

One of the standout features of the SLM2008PTNA is its Layer 2 switching capabilities. This switch supports auto-negotiation, which allows each port to automatically detect the speed of the connected device and adjust accordingly. This ensures optimal performance and smooth operation across various connected devices. Additionally, the switch supports a non-blocking architecture, ensuring that bandwidth is not shared, which significantly enhances data transmission speed.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is another key technology incorporated into the Cisco SLM2008PTNA. It simplifies the installation of network devices such as VoIP phones, security cameras, and wireless access points by supplying power through the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power sources, reducing installation costs and increasing flexibility in device placement.

Moreover, the SLM2008PTNA comes equipped with advanced security features, such as port security and VLAN support. Port security allows network administrators to restrict access to the network based on MAC addresses, preventing unauthorized access and enhancing network security. The support for Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) enables the segmentation of the network into different logical networks, improving traffic management and security within each segment.

The switch is designed for easy management and monitoring, featuring a user-friendly web interface that simplifies configuration. This allows network administrators to quickly set up and manage the device without requiring extensive technical knowledge. Additionally, its compact design makes it suitable for desktop or rack-mount installation, maximizing space efficiency in network environments.

In conclusion, the Cisco Systems SLM2008PTNA is an essential component for small to medium-sized businesses looking to enhance their network performance. With its Layer 2 switching capabilities, Power over Ethernet support, advanced security features, and ease of management, this switch provides a well-rounded solution for modern networking needs, delivering reliable performance and scalability for growth.
