N5k and FI sending syslog

[sandevsingh]

Hi, I would like to know the behaviuor of N5ks and FIs when they are sending syslog messages to multiple remote syslog servers. Do they send it only to the 1st in the list OR to all of them at the same time.

If I do "show logging server" on the n5k, it shows me 3 BUT as i do not have access o those servers, I cannot verify this.

Hello,

If you have configured three syslog servers, FI would send logs to all of them.

If you want to verify it and do not have access to syslog servers, then one way to verify whether we send the messages or not is to turn on the debugs.

connect nxos

debug logging

show debug logfile syslogd_debugs  <<<<---- view the debugs

un all <<<---- turn off the debug

You can do the same on N5K and verify it's functionality.
