Logging to a remote host

The switch comes from the factory with local logging enabled, which instructs the switch firmware to
maintain an event log in switch memory. The switch can also be configured to log events to a remote host
that supports the syslog protocol. This, however, requires that you enable remote logging on the switch and
specify an IP address for the remote host.
NOTE: To log event messages on a remote host, edit the syslog.conf file on the remote host and then
restart the syslog daemon. The syslog.conf file must contain an entry that specifies the name of the log
file. Add the following line to the syslog.conf file. In this command, a <tab> separates the selector
field (local0.info) from the action field, which contains the log file path name
(/var/adm/messages/messages.name).
local0.info <tab> /var/adm/messages/messages.name
Consult your host operating system documentation for information on how to configure remote logging.
