Configuring the 2210 for Remote Logging
To configure a 2210:
1. In talk 6, configure the remote-logging facility as shown in Figure 7 on page 158.
The IP address specified as the
source-ip-addr
should be an IP address that is
configured in the 2210 for easier identification when the IP address or the
hostname is shown in the remotely-logged ELS message. You should also verify
that this IP address resolves quickly into a hostname by the name server or that

# /etc/syslog.conf - control output of syslogd
#
# Each line must consist of two parts:-
#
# 1) A selector to determine the message priorities to which the
# line applies
# 2) An action.
#
# The two fields must be separated by one or more tabs or spaces.
#
# format:
#
# <msg_src_list> <destination>
#
# where <msg_src_list> is a semicolon separated list of <facility>.<priority>
# where:
#
# <facility> is:
# * - all (except mark)
# kern,user,mail,daemon, auth, syslog, lpr, news, uucp, cron, authpriv, local0 - local7
#
# <priority or level> is one of (from high to low):
# emerg,alert,crit,err(or),warn(ing),notice,info,debug
# (meaning all messages of this priority or higher)
#
# <destination> is:
# /filename - log to this file
# username[,username2...] - write to user(s)
# @hostname - send to syslogd on this machine
# * - send to all logged in users
#
# example:
# "mail messages, at debug or higher, go to Log file. File must exist."
# "all facilities, at debug and higher, go to console"
# "all facilities, at crit or higher, go to all users"
# mail.debug /usr/spool/mqueue/syslog
# *.debug /dev/console
# *.crit *
# syslog messages with facilty / priority values of LOG_USER, LOG_ALERT
user.alert /tmp/syslog_user_alert
# syslog messages with facilty / priority values of LOG_NEWS, LOG_INFO
