Cisco Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server Expressway

Optional configuration steps 

The following configuration will enable event logs to be sent to an external logging server (using the 
SYSLOG protocol). 

 

The Log level controls the granularity of event logging. 1 is the least verbose, 4 the most. 

 

A minimum log level of 2 is recommended, as this level provides both system and basic signaling 
message logging. 

Note: Cisco VCS Expressway external logging server configuration requires additional firewall / 
NAT configuration – See Appendix 3 – NAT & firewall configuration.  

To configure a Logging server: 

1.  Go to the Logging page (System configuration > Logging). 

2. Configure 

the 

Remote syslog server IP address field as follows: 

 

Enter 10.0.0.13

 

Enter 10.0.0.13

 

Select 2

 

Select 2

 

3. Click
