(Server ID), and is responsible for accepting and responding to secure HTTP requests from clients. This service is
required by the web interface and remote RACADM CLI tool for communicating with CMC.
If the web server resets, wait at least one minute for the services to become available again. A web server reset usually
happens as a result of any of the following events:
• Network configuration or network security properties are changed through the CMC web user interface or
RACADM.
• Web server port configuration is changed through the web user interface or RACADM.
• CMC is reset.
• A new SSL server certificate is uploaded.
NOTE: To modify service settings, you must have the Chassis Configuration Administrator privilege.
Remote syslog is an additional log target for CMC. After you configure the remote syslog, each new log entry generated
by CMC is forwarded to the respective destinations.
NOTE: Because the network transport for the forwarded log entries is UDP, there is no guaranteed delivery of log
entries, nor is there any feedback to CMC about whether the log entries were received successfully.

Similarly, when displaying the iDRAC properties using the RACADM getconfig command, the property values are
displayed as N/A for an unsupported feature on the server.
