Setting Description

Host

IP address or host name of the remote syslog server to which messages are sent.

Port

Port of the remote syslog server to which messages are sent.

Protocol

Leave at default (UDP).

Debug Level

From the 'Debug Level' drop-down menu select either:

DEBUG (default level for Topology; only messages whose debug level is DEBUG and higher are sent to the syslog server)
INFO
WARN
ERROR

When enabling syslog for a Router, there's a single syslog server for all Routing servers in the ARM. All ARM Routers send their syslog to this syslog server (at the same 'Debug Level'). This is necessary for proper calls debugging, as a single call can be processed by several different ARM Routers (they are state-less). For the ARM Configurator, however, you can assign a different syslog server.
