Nimbostratusracoon logs remote logging
Hi everyone,
is it possible to push racoon logs to a remote syslog server? If so, how can I do it?
Regards,
you have to work out how to configure the syslog on the box to achieve that.
jjairosF5 logging deployment for racoon is to a file which seems to override the default logging mechanism to syslog. It could be also a case of there has been no defined filter for syslog-ng to catch the messages. May be a good idea to open a ticket with F5 Support and ask for improvement for raccoon to log to syslog of which it then becomes flexible for one to send the logs remotely.
*** Extract from raccoon manual ***
"racoon usually sends all informational messages, warnings and error messages to syslogd(8) with the facility LOG_DAEMON and the priority LOG_INFO. Debugging messages are sent with the priority LOG_DEBUG. You should configure syslog.conf(5) appropriately to see these messages."
njuettner_14565Yes exactly, I've created a ticket and will share the information as soon as I get a response from F5.
