Step 7 Configure the log server.
A log server is used to collect logs of the device because the storage memory of the switch is
not large enough to record the generated logs.
Log servers can be installed with UNIX or LINUX operating system or with the log software of
the third party.
If being installed with UNIX or LINUX operating system, the host can collect logs when enabled
with Syslog.
Take the host installed with LINUX operating system as an example.

Run the touch loghost.info command in the directory /var/log to create a file loghost.info
to record logs of the switch.
Edit etc/syslog.conf to loghost.info /var/log/switch.log, that is specify the log host name. The
logs with the severity level as informational are then output to /var/log/loghost.log of the
system.
Modify syslogd_options="-m o" to syslogd_option="-1 -m o", enabling the system to record
the logs of the remote devices.
