Configure the Destination of the Remote Syslog Server
config logexport destination <server-ip-address:port> <protocol>
Supported Values for <protocol>
:
- TCP, UDP, or TLS.
- If no value is specified, TCP is the default.
- If the protocol value is TCP or UDP and a port is not specified, 514 is assigned as the default port.
- If the protocol value is TLS and a port is not specified, 6514 is taken as the default port.
- IPv6 addresses are not supported as destination IPs for this command.
For example:
config logexport destination <10.26.02.82:514> udp
To forward the logs over a TLS-encrypted session, first create the certificates for the client (VA) and server (remote syslog server). The certificates can be self-signed or signed by a Root certificate authority (CA).
Add the key and certificate to the VA using the following commands:
config logexport key <copy the contents from keyForClientCert.pem file>
config logexport cert <copy the contents from ClientCert.pem file>
config logexport ca \<copy the contents from selfsignedCA.pem|chainCertCA.pem file>
|
The CA configured in the last command should be the CA used to sign the server certificate.
