Syslog
Function Description
8.6.1
In addition to showing audit logs in the Maintenance tab via the user interface, the device supports transmit-
ting the audit logs to a central log server using Syslog.
Syslog is a well-established internationally implemented standard for message logging. The Syslog standard is
specified in the following documents:
•
The Syslog Protocol
•
Transport Layer Security (TLS) Transport Mapping for Syslog ("T-profile")
•
Signed Syslog Messages ("A-profile")
•
Transmission of Syslog Messages over UDP
Syslog allows the separation of the following:
•
The software that generates messages
•
The system that stores messages
•
The software that reports and analyzes messages
Computer system designers can use Syslog for system management and security auditing as well as general
informational, analysis, and debugging messages. Various devices, such as printers, routers, and message
receivers across many platforms use the Syslog standard. For example, a power quality device works as a
device and a Kiwi Syslog service manager works as a receiver.
