Syslog Server Setup
Active

edit the entry later).

Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the syslog server.
UDP Port
The default syslog server port is 514. If your syslog server uses a different port, configure the
one it uses here.
Log Level
Select the severity levels of the logs that you want the device to send to this syslog server.
The lower the number, the more critical the logs are.
