Logging to a Remote Host
The switch comes from the factory with local logging enabled, which instructs the
switch firmware to maintain an event log in switch memory. The switch can also be
configured to log events to a remote host that supports the syslog protocol. This
requires that you enable remote logging on the switch and specify an IP address
for the remote host.

NOTE:
To log event messages on a remote host, you must edit the syslog.conf file
on the remote host and then restart the syslog daemon. The syslog.conf file
must contain an entry that specifies the name of the log file. Add the
following line to the syslog.conf file. A <tab> separates the selector field
(local0.info) and action field which contains the log file path name
(/var/adm/messages/messages.name).
