MDS 9000. Syslog files format

[loliduran]

Hi.

Anybody knows logging files format in a MDS9000 switch? 

We want to pick up them (besides another kind of syslog from other types of machines) in a syslog server and we need to know how parse it to keep.

Can anybody send me a syslog file (sent from a MDS 9000) as it is received on a syslog server?

Thanks. Loli

you can configure MDS Switch to send Logs - what level of Syslog depends on business requirement and kind of Syslog server capacity.

Once the Logs received in the Syslog log file, you can do with the data what every format and make a script to send reports.
