I have a couple of Cisco 2960's sending syslog messages to a remote syslog-ng on port 514 (standard).
I need to set another Swtich so it sends traffic to the same syslog server but on another UDP port (such as 714),, is that possible,?
I cannot find the option on the documentation.
Thanks!

It appear that the 2960s do not support this command
here the reference guide for 12.2(55)

Hello,
Try using:
logging host X.X.X.X transport udp port 714
Best regards,

Hello Peter
Switch(config)#logging 192.168.200.223 transport udp port 714
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
According to the documentation, the command is > logging host <
where host is the destination IP.
Doestn say anything about ports or protocol. :-(

Hi,
The command Peter provided is correct.
see example:
Switch(config)#logging host 192.168.200.223 transport udp port 174
Switch(config)#
can you provide a model number for your 2960?

In the global can you do an l and ? to see the options?
Switch(config)#l?
l2protocol-tunnel lacp li-view license
line link lldp location
logging login
Switch(config)#l
10-23-2011 04:29 PM
returns:
lacp line link logging login

:-( Thats what I was afraid of.
I didnt see it on the Documentation.
I might have then to try another trick, maybe a Middleware Syslog, with some filters and then a forward to another port.
Thats a shame it doesnt support it.

You can accomplish what you need by filtering on the receiving end for that one switch. Here's a link to a very good whitepaper on syslog management:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/technologies/collateral/tk869/tk769/white_paper_c11-557812.html
You can easily set up syslog-ng or rsyslog to filter out messages from that device.
