Remote SYSLOG
What is Remote Syslog?
With an organically growing network, the number devices that create locally stored log files grows. Since each devices follows his own
method to provide local log file data, it is a big problem to collect and centralize these data for network error analyzes. Remote Syslog
follows the idea that as many systems as possible not only manage their log files locally, but also store them in a standardized data
format on a central syslog server:
By doing so, higher level management systems are able to automatically access the files search for problems and errors within a
network and, if necessary, to initiate appropriate measures.

finished the according configuration menu is available. Give the RSyslog service some seconds and than proceed to it's configuration
menu by clicking "RSyslog":
