NimbostratusToo many syslogs!
Hi,
I'm trying to get my LTM cluster to send only warning and above syslog messages to my external syslogs server. It is currently sending debugging messages and flooding my syslog server with useless info.
I can't seem to get the LTM to send anything higher than debug. I have this config:
b syslog include
SYSLOG - Include Data:
destination remote_server {
udp("10.15.5.7" port (514));
};
filter f_alllogs {
level (warn...emerg);
};
log {
source(local);
filter(f_alllogs);
destination(remote_server);
};
Any ideas whats going on?

remote server mgmt {
host 10.15.5.7- nitasssince u wanna use syslog include, syslog remote server is not needed.
please remove it and it will work as u want.
>remote server mgmt {
>host 10.15.5.7 - Luca_55898thanks, that looks to have worked.
- Luca_55898Is there a difference between using the syslog include funtion, or using the remote server config?
Just wondering what the best way to do this is...
syslog include or
modify sys syslog remote-servers - nitasssyslog include is more ganular e.g. filter out some log level.
