Configuring a Source IP Address for Remote Syslog
Messages 73
Section4.10.3.5
Configuring a Source IP Address for Remote Syslog Messages
IP packets for remote syslog messages include a destination IP address and a source IP address. The source IP
address is the interface from which the message is sent (e.g. switch.0001). However, that address may not be
meaningful within the system log, or the address may conflict with a firewall rule or policy. In such cases, an
alternative source IP address can be configured for all remote syslog messages.
To configure a specific source IP address for all remote syslog messages, do the following:
1. Make sure the CLI is in Configuration mode.
2. Make sure an IP address is first defined for the desired interface. For more information, refer to either
Section7.1.3.2, “Adding an IPv4 Address” or Section7.1.4.2, “Adding an IPv6 Address”.
3. Configure the source IP address by typing:
admin logging source-ip address
Where:
• address is the alternative source IP address
4. Type commit and press Enter to save the changes, or type revert and press Enter to abort.

Managing Diagnostic Logs
Diagnostic logs are available for troubleshooting the device. Various device behavior is recorded in the following
logs:
Log Filename
Developer's Log /var/log/confd-dev.log
SNMP Log /var/log/snmp-trace.log
NETCONF Summary Log /var/log/netconf.log
NETCONF Trace Log /var/log/netconf-trace.log
XPATH Trace Log /var/log/xpath-trace.log
WebUI Trace Log /var/log/webui-trace.log
CAUTION!
Configuration hazard – risk of reduced performance. Enabling diagnostic logging will significantly
affect the performance of RUGGEDCOM ROX II. Only enable diagnostic logging when directed by
Siemens.
