Sending access logs to a certain local on Syslog

[Wasfi Bounni]

Hi;

I know how that access logs can be sent to a Syslog server. However, what if the Syslog server is listenting on a certain log facility like local5 for example?

Is there a way to setup the access logs to be sent to local5 on the Syslog server?


Kindly

Hi Wasfi,

The way sending Access Logs to a Syslog server is accomplished is by using the Custom Client upload client, which only allows for Host IP and port. If you can define a unique port for local5, then you could probably get it to work.

Thanks!

Hello Wasfi,

To add to what Jacob mentioned.

If you upload the Access Logs using the FTP or HTTP upload client , there is a way to specify the directory / Path to where you want those logs uploaded to on the remote server in your case local5 etc.
