Syslog Format RFC3164

[skeff839]

Hello,

we have many different type of Extreme Networks Switches. I am beginning to add all our switches to a central syslog server which only accepts the RFC3164 standard.
 

What standard is Extreme Networks using? I guess not the RFC3164 beacuse I am getting Errors.

I am looking for a configuration for a ERS4950 Switch.

Best regards, Stefan

Which command changes it to RFC3164?

I only receive non RFC3164 Format

Hi Ludovico,

thanks for your response. Yes I was wrong the ERS support RFC3164)  i mean the VSP-9012?
Does the VSP-9012 support RFC3164?

enable
configure terminal
