Hello,

on the N9K use the 'logging server x.x.x.x' command:

Nexus i use like this :

logging server X.x.x.x 4
logging server y.y.y.y  4 use-vrf  MGMT

logging server host [ severity-level [ facility ]]

Level of Log you want to send :

Table 1-1 System Message Severity Levels

Level	Description
0 – emergency	System unusable
1 – alert	Immediate action needed
2 – critical	Critical condition
3 – error	Error condition
4 – warning	Warning condition
5 – notification	Normal but significant condition
6 – informational	Informational message only
7 – debugging	Appears during debugging only
