Syslog Configuration

5.5. Syslog Configuration
NOTE
With the CAN@net NT in the CAN-Ethernet-CAN Bridge mode each device can be configured
differently. But to build a Bridge configuration all devices must be configured in one configuration
file. The configuration has to be set completely for all devices (Master, Slave 1 to 3) and then has to
be downloaded to each device.
Figure 10. Syslog configuration
Syslog messages are only possible with the CAN@net NT via Ethernet.
If Syslog is enabled, standardized log messages can be transmitted to a receiver with a specified IP address. In
Action Rules it has to be defined which syslog messages are transmitted from the CAN@net NT.
Severity Level
The severity levels are defined by the syslog standard. The severity level of the syslog messages is set in action
rules for each message individually. The severity level setting in the menu syslog configuration works as a filter.
All messages with the selected severity level and lower are forwarded to the syslog server.
Example 1. Severity Level 3
If severity level Error (3) is set, the messages with the following severity levels are forwarded to the syslog server:
• Error (3)
• Critical (2)
• Alert (1)
• Emergency (0)
