System Logging Configuration
You can configure the Nokia IP45 security platform to send event logs to a syslog server that
resides in your internal network or on the Internet. The logs store the event details like the date
and the time as they occur. If the event is a communication attempt that was rejected by the
firewall, the event details include the source and destination IP address, the destination port, and
the protocol used for the communication attempt (for example, TCP or UDP).
Nokia IP45 supports local event logging, which you can view from Reports > Event Log. Up to
100 events can be logged here. You can also configure an external syslog server by using the
following method.
To configure an external syslog server
1.
Choose Setup from the main menu, and select the Logging tab.
The Logging page opens.
2.
Enter the IP address for the syslog server in the Syslog Server field.
3.
To enter the IP address of your computer, click
This Computer
.
Note
The syslog server can run either on a computer outside your network, or on a computer
inside your IP45 network.
4.
Specify the port number where the syslog server should run. The default port number is 514.
5.
Click Apply.
