How to send messages from a XMG1915-10E to a syslogserver

I am probably overlooking something, but I do not manage to forward alarms from my XMG1915-10E to my GrayLog VM.

It should be so simple …

Do here my initial setup

  • I did select all possible alarms all levels for a start and testing
  • I defined a syslog server
  • And assumed that the facility number is corresponding with the index number as related to the syslog server (but that is no where documented)
  • I also tried local use 0
  • I assume that the messages will be forwarded from the switch management IP
  • And forwarding to a not existing syslog server in the management IP vlan I am using for this switch

Since I did not receive any message on my GrayLog VM (also not when switching a port on and off, or login and out), I looked at the data stream with wireshark .. all nothing.

So I am probably overlook something …. but I did not manage ….

Pleas help

PS, using the latest firmware version
