You can configure your Zyxel FWA505 to send logs to a syslog server by following these steps, and ensure your server is properly set up:

  1. On the Zyxel FWA505 Device
    • Access the FWA505’s local web GUI.
    • Navigate to Maintenance > Log Setting.
    • Under the Mode setting, select either "Remote" or "Local File and Remote".
    • Enter the IP address of your syslog server accordingly.

  2. On the Syslog Server (e.g., Windows Server 2025 VM on VMware)
    • Ensure a compatible syslog server application is installed and actively listening.
    • Verify that the Windows Server firewall allows incoming traffic on the designated syslog port, which is typically UDP 514.
