An external Syslog server is often used by network administrator to collect and store
logs from the controller. This remote device typically has less memory constraints
than the local Event Viewer on the controller GUI, and thus can collect a
considerable number of logs over a sustained period. This is ty pically very useful
for debugging network issues or to monitor controller traffic over a long duration.

considerable number of logs over a sustained period. This is ty pically very useful
for debugging network issues or to monitor controller traffic over a long duration.
This controller supports up to 8 concurrent Syslog servers. Each can be configured
to receive different log facility messages of varying severity. To e nable a Syslog
server select the checkbox next to an empty Syslog server field and assign the IP
address or FQDN to the Name field. The selected facility and severity level
messages will be sent to the configured (and enabled) Syslog server once you save
this configuration page‘s settings.
