specify UDP, the security appliance continues to send logs regardless of whether the syslog server is
operational. The port argument specifies the port that the syslog server listens to for system log
messages. Valid port values are 1025 through 65535, for either protocol. The default UDP port is 514.
The default TCP port is 1470.
For example:
hostname(config)# logging host dmz1 192.168.1.5
If you want to designate more than one syslog server as an output destination, enter a new command for
each syslog server.
To specify which system log messages should be sent to the syslog server, enter the following command:
Step 2
hostname(config)# logging trap {severity_level | message_list}
Where the severity_level argument specifies the severity levels of messages to be sent to the syslog
server. You can specify the severity level number (0 through 7) or name. For severity level names, see
