Syslog forwarding to specific port

scandelis
Level 1
Level 1

I'm trying to get a Cisco 9500-16x 16.9.2 Fuji to send logging data to a log server over a specific port. I need to have all these switches use different ports as our logging system only differentiates the hosts by incoming port. I was told "logging xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx transport udp port 40001" but that didn't work and i can't find the command options in any Cisco dox. Anyone know how to accomplish this?

Make sure you syslog server also listen to that port 40001  (in your case) 

by defaul SYSLOG  only listen on UDP 514

 

What kind of SYSLOG Server you using ?

I know the default port is 514, but I need to configure this switch to send on a different port, but I can't figure out the command. We're using Rapid7 via our security vendor, it can listen on any port we configure.

Please correct me if i am wrong here?

 

you want  cat 9K send logs to Rapid7 ? is this correct ?

 

then look at the document : https://insightidr.help.rapid7.com/docs/syslog-logging
