Syslog Port Settings

Set the Syslog UDP port and collector port numbers in this section.

If you want to add your own port numbers, ensure that you do not use the system reserved ports. For the complete list of reserved port numbers, see Port Assignments.

Field Description
Syslog UDP Port The syslog UDP port used for incoming messages. The default is 514. If you choose to use non-default ports and the firewall is enabled, then these ports must be added to the list of allowed ports in the Administration > Firewall Settings tab. To accept traffic on multiple ports, you must separate each port with a space. A maximum of 32 syslog UDP listening ports can be set.
Note: If the firewall is enabled, run the system firewall command to add the customized syslog UDP port to the firewall rule.
Custom Syslog TCP Collector Ports You can add a maximum of 14 port numbers separated by comma or space. After clicking Update, these port numbers are updated in the /loglogic/cong/tcpcoll.conf file. Any existing port numbers in the file are overwritten.
