Now, the device can output FTP logs to the log host, which stores the logs to the specified file.
Configuration example for outputting logs to a Linux
log host
Network requirements
Configure the device to output to the Linux log host 1.2.0.1/16 FTP logs that have a severity level of at
least
informational
.
Figure 21
Network diagram
Configuration procedure
Before the configuration, make sure that the device and the log host can reach each other. (Details not
shown.)
1.
Configure the device:
# Enable the information center.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] info-center enable
# Specify the log host 1.2.0.1/16, and specify
local5
as the logging facility.
[Sysname] info-center loghost 1.2.0.1 facility local5
# Disable log output to the log host.
[Sysname] info-center source default loghost deny
To avoid outputting unnecessary information, disable all modules from outputting log information
to the specified destination (
loghost
in this example) before you configure an output rule.
# Configure an output rule to enable output to the log host FTP logs that have a severity level of at
least
informational
.
[Sysname] info-center source ftp loghost level informational
2.
Configure the log host:
The following configurations were performed on Solaris. Other UNIX operating systems have
similar configurations.
a.
Log in to the log host as a root user.
b.
Create a subdirectory named
Device
in the directory
/var/log/
, and create file
info.log
in the
Device
directory to save logs of
Device
.
# mkdir /var/log/Device
# touch /var/log/Device/info.log
c.
Edit the file
syslog.conf
in directory
/etc/
and add the following contents.
# Device configuration messages
local5.info /var/log/Device/info.log
Internet
