syslog traffic, edit the /etc/sysconfig/syslog configuration file such that the -r option is included
(enables remote logging):
SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-r -m 0"
and then restart the logging service:
# /etc/init.d/syslog stop
# /etc/init.d/syslog start
Some Linux distributions have an ipfilter packet filter that will reject syslog UDP packets by
default, and the filter must be modified to permit them. On these distributions, use a command
similar to the following to add an INPUT rule to accept syslog UDP packets:
# iptables -I INPUT 1 -p udp --sport 514 --dport 514 -j ACCEPT
By default, Linux syslogd records messages to /var/log/messages and a test alert would be
recorded as follows:

System Identity Configuration
This service provides configuration for the system name and location. You might need to
change these if the appliance is moved to a different network location, or repurposed.
The appliance supports customer-owned certificates. The life cycle of a certificate starts
with generating a Certificate Signing Request (CSR). The CSR is then sent to the Certificate
Authority (CA) for signature. After the signed certificate is returned from the CA, it can be
installed on the appliance. If a certificate is signed by a non-root CA, you must also obtain
certificates from the second- and higher-level CAs.
To configure system identity, use the following tasks:
Creating a New Certificate - BUI,
■
Uploading Certificates from Non-root CAs - BUI,
■
Viewing CSR and Certificate Details - BUI,
■
Setting the Appliance Certificate - BUI,
■
Destroying a CSR or Certificate - BUI,
■
Configuring SNMP to Send Traps (BUI)
