Configuring Syslog on the Router
You can use Technician Interface commands to configure Syslog on a router. You
configure Syslog as a sequence of tasks, where some tasks include one or more
numbered steps.
The following is an overview of the tasks required to configure Syslog on a router:
1. Using the console attached to the router, or using a Telnet connection to the
router, open a Technician Interface session.
2. Define a slot mask (a slot map) for loading Syslog on the router.
3. Create the Syslog entity on the router.
4. Configure Syslog global attributes.
5. Add a remote host to the Syslog Host Table.
6. Add an entity filter to the Syslog entity filter table.
7. Return to Task 5 to add another remote host or return to task 6 to add another
entity filter for the remote host; otherwise go to Task 8.
8. Save to a file on an NVFS volume the Syslog additions to your configuration.
9. Log out of the Technician Interface session.
The next sections describe the Syslog configuration sequence in greater detail.
Following the configuration procedure, this appendix provides an example of
Syslog configuration, plus definitions of Syslog attributes you use during
configuration.
