• | Server Settings: To configure the NAS as a Syslog server and allow it to receive Syslog messages from the clients, enable Syslog Server. Select the protocols (TCP and/or UDP) the NAS uses to receive Syslog messages. Specify the port numbers if necessary or use the default port number 514. Click 'Apply' to save the settings. After enabling the NAS as a Syslog server, enter the NAS IP as the Syslog server IP on the Syslog clients to receive the Syslog messages from them. |
Syslog servers (or syslog hosts) collect syslog data and agents send that data. For Windows Server, you need an agent, not a collector (or server). For example, Solarwinds syslog server (formerly Kiwi syslog server) is a syslog server, not a syslog agent. If you don’t have a syslog server already, then that is a good option for general use. May 19, 2020 Syslog Server. Syslog itself relies heavily upon having a Syslog server of some kind to receive, store, and interpret Syslog messages because, after all, a device or application being able to send messages is of little use if there's nothing to receive them!

• | Log Settings: Specify the maximum log size (1-100 MB) of the Syslog messages, the location (NAS shared folder) to which the logs will be saved, and the file name. Once the logs have reached the maximum size, the log file will be automatically archived and renamed with the archive date as MyLogFile_yyyy_mm_dd, for example MyLogFile_2011_12_31. If multiple log files are archived on the same day, the file will be named as MyLogFile_yyyy_mm_dd.[number]. For example, MyLogFile_2011_12_31.1, MyLogFile_2011_12_31.2, and so on. Click 'Apply' to save the settings. |
I Syslog stands for System Logging Protocol and is a standard protocol used to send system log or event messages to a specific server, called a syslog server. It is primarily used to collect various device logs from several different machines in a central location for monitoring and review. The protocol is enabled on most network equipment such as routers, switches, firewalls, and even some. Fastvue Syslog installs a Windows Service that listens for syslog messages and writes them to text. The service is configured via a web interface that runs on port 47279. The first time you access the web interface, you are presented with the options to set the log and archive paths, listening ports and a username/password for the web interface.
• | Email Notification: The NAS supports sending email alert to dedicated email addresses (maximum 2, configured in 'System Settings' > 'Notification' > 'Alert Notification') when the severity of the received Syslog messages match the specified level. To use this feature, configure the SMTP server settings in 'System Settings' > 'Notification' > 'SMTP Server'. Next, enable email notification and select the severity level in 'Applications' > 'Syslog Server' > 'Server Settings'. Click 'Apply' to save the settings. |
