Configuring Syslog

Configuring Syslog
Syslog is the most common way to archive router events for security monitoring.
A router acts as a syslog client that sends messages to a syslog server.
Syslog severities range from 0 (critical) to 7 (debugging). Example 5-8
demonstrates how to configure syslog.
