cann't apply syslog server

JohanHendrikx — Thu, 02 Mar 2017 19:04:00 GMT

I'm trying to apply a syslog server with netsight. This isn't possible. I've got an error 2 (bad OID or instance).

Netsight version: 7.0.9.4

Issue with several type of switches. (X250, X440 and X460)

X670 isn't supported at all.

How to resolve this.

Hi Johan,

could you post a syslog-config from one of your switches?
I stumbled over the fact, that the default format-string contains the hostname as sender and not the IP.
NetSight needs the IP to process the syslogs, see: https://community.extremenetworks.com/extreme/topics/netsight-syslog-source-ip-is-missing

configure syslog add 10.2.112.1:514 vr VR-Default local0
enable log target syslog 10.2.112.1:514 vr VR-Default local0
configure log target syslog 10.2.112.1:514 vr VR-Default local0 filter DefaultFilter severity Error
configure log target syslog 10.2.112.1:514 vr VR-Default local0 match Any
configure log target syslog 10.2.112.1:514 vr VR-Default local0 format timestamp seconds date dd-mm-yyyy event-name none host-name tag-id tag-name
