DESCRIPTION
Select this to have the NSA accept syslog logs from syslog clients. Clear it to
stop the NSA from accepting syslog logs from syslog clients.
Click View Files to browse to where you want to store the syslog logs on the
NSA.
Select the share in which to store the syslog logs.
Use this if you want to further specify a folder within the share. This field
displays the share folder's path. Type the location of the folder using forward
slashes as branch separators or use Browse to find or create a folder on the
NSA.
After you click Apply in the Syslog Server screen the NSA creates a folder
for the current month's logs. The folder's name uses the year and month in
YYYYMM format.
Select Enable Purge Policy and set a number of months in the Log
Deletion Interval field that displays to have the NSA delete the syslog
messages after keeping them for the specified period of time.
Regardless of how you set the purge policy, to save hard disk space the NSA
archives the syslog logs in a .tgz file on the second day of each month and
deletes the original folder and syslog files. The NSA creates a new folder for
the syslog logs it receives after that. You can use a zip program such as 7-zip
to open the archives.
