Enable Syslog - GatewayNode 3

The GatewayNode 3 contains a Syslog agent. This sends system log messages in standard format (RFC3164) to a logging server. By default, the Syslog Agent is disabled.

  1. The configuration interface opens, (see Configuration interface).
  1. Use Konfiguration to select the Ports & Protocols input.
  3. From the drop-down menuSyslog Server, select item Ein.
  4. Configure the necessary settings (IP address of the Syslog server, UDP port, desired Level and Facility for sending Syslog messages).
  5. Click the button Save, to apply the changes.
  1. GatewayNode 3 restarts.

Timestamping of messages is provided by internal RTC of GatewayNode 3. For this reason, enter a valid NTP server for time synchronisation to facilitate correct time stamps in messages (see also RTC time synchronisation).
