Re: syslogging PIX data

[Stacy Brandenburg]

From CCO:

"This guide only describes syslog messages for version 4.3(2) and later

logging host [interface] ip_address [protocol/port]

Specifies a host that receives the syslog messages. The PIX Firewall can now send messages across UDP or TCP (as specified by setting the protocol variable). The default UDP port is 514. The default TCP port is 1468."

So if you use the UDP/514 - that hould work just fine. Perhaps I misunderstood and you WANT to use TCP, instead of UDP for some reason. Which you can. However, UDP/514 works like a champ. I use it for 535's and 525's that run multiple GigE interaces and that generate *alot* of log output, and never seem to have issues with lost log info.

Hopefully the previous post will help you with getting syslog server to run on the TCP port.

Good luck,
