Cisco SMB

Products from Cisco Small Business range support logging to the Logmanager server. To set-up the logging, follow these steps.

1. Login to web administration:

   

2. In the left menu select Administration ‣ System Log ‣ Log Settings. Allow logging by clicking on Enable at Logging and select the required level of logs in the bottom part.

   

3. Select Remote Log Servers and click on button Add.

   

4. In the pop-up window set:

   • Server Definition: set By IP address
   • IP Version: choose version version 4 or version 6
   • Log Server IP Address/Name: set <Logmanager_IP_address>
   • UDP Port: 514
   • Facility: Local 0
   • Minimum Severity: choose minimal level of logging

   Logmanager_IP_address is IP address of your Logmanager server.

   

   Select Apply to save the configuration.

You can also make configuration via CLI

1. config term
2. logging host <IPadress_of_Logmanager>
3. do wri mem

To successfully receive and process logs, you need to set up the log classification correctly. The easiest way to do this is to add the IP addresses of the device (or your chosen subnet) to the appropriate IP prefix list.

Some devices in Logmanager do not have their own IP Prefix list and you need to create one or use a classifier - Classifiers. However, an IP prefix list exists for this device, so follow the procedure below.

1. Log in to the web administration Logmanager.

   Add the IP address of the CiscoSMB device to the IP prefix list “Cisco-SMB”.

   Go to Parser/IP prefix lists:

   • Locate the IP prefix list Cisco-SMB.
   • Edit with blue pen icon.
   • Add the IP addresses of your Cisco SMB devices. (Alternatively, you can use your chosen subnet)

   IP prefix lists are used in the vendor-Default-classification template - more Classifier Templates.

   This is standard for most Logmanager installations. If you are using your own classifiers or are unsure about something, please contact your certified partner or help@logmanager.com.
