Remote syslog options
Remote Syslog Server—The IP address, FQDN, IPv6 name, or short name of the server running the
Syslog service. To enter multiple servers, separate the server IP address, FQDN, IPv6 name, or short
name with a semicolon. You can enter up to 63 characters per server, and a total of 127 characters.
On Linux systems, a tool called syslog logs system events. You can set a syslog server on a remote
system that will act as a central logging system for iLO systems. If the iLO Remote Syslog feature is
enabled in iLO, it can send its logs to the syslog server.
Remote Syslog Port—The port number through which the Syslog server is listening. Only one port
number can be entered in this box. When you enter multiple Remote Syslog servers, they must use
the same port. The default value is 514.
