<\/span><\/h2>\n1) Since the configuration is present on the command line, we will start by opening a terminal. Once on it, we will change the mode as enable:<\/p>\n
ena<\/pre>\n2) It is important to note that the timestamp, i.e. the time that will be exported logs is of particular importance in the system of centralized logs. It makes it possible to accurately trace logs across multiple machines. This is why the first thing to do is put our machine on the right date and at the right time.<\/p>\n
clock set 20:11:00 November 25 2015<\/pre>\n3) We will then change the mode configuration to set sending logs.<\/p>\n
conf t<\/pre>\n4) We start by activating the timestamp of the logs:<\/p>\n
service timestamps<\/pre>\n5) Then configures various parameters to the sending of logs, it starts with the remote server IP:<\/p>\n
logging xxx.xxx.xx.xx<\/pre>\n6) Then you can specify the log facility that will allow us, on the remote server, sort the logs, for example:<\/p>\n
logging facility local5<\/pre>\nAlso an important thing to do is to configure the log-level from which one will take care to send the logs. For various reasons such as performance, you may not want to send all logs to the remote server then we will choose to send logs from a certain level of criticality. Generally, there are these log levels:<\/p>\n
* 7 – debugging<\/p>\n
* 6- informational<\/p>\n
* 5 – notifications<\/p>\n
* 4 – warnings<\/p>\n
* 3 – errors<\/p>\n
* 2 – critical<\/p>\n
* 1 – alerts<\/p>\n
* 0 – emergencies<\/p>\n
You will understand the log level \u201c0\u201d is the most critical case and \u201c7\u201d is the most talkative if many logs are produced. As part of the tutorial, we will for instance send logs of 6-0, so we set the value to \u201cinformational\u201d:<\/p>\n
