Syslog Email forwarding on Cisco Prime Infrastructure

[CB90021204]

Hi, does anyone know if the syslog email forwarding feature has been added to PI2.2?

The feature was previouly available in Cisco LMS and the following link stated it might be added to PI2.2: https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/12351696/syslog-email-forwarding-cisco-prime-infrastructure

Thanks,

They did add the out-of-the-box support for all syslog severity levels.

They did NOT add syslog forwarding capability.

You can query PI using the REST API to extract syslog messages it has received; but it cannot currently be setup to forward them automatically.

I don't suppose you know if this will be added in the near future? Seems like a pretty basic feature.

I've not heard of any plans for it.

Architecturally, the path Cisco is taking is to make the REST API available for other programs and systems that are "northbound" of PI and need to get data from it.
