What is a Syslog?

WhatsUp Gold's Syslog Daemon receives standard UDP messages sent from routers, switches, UNIX hosts, or any device that can generate UDP network traffic. The UDP port that has been assigned to syslog is 514. WhatsUp Gold syslog server will receive any UDP message sent from routers, switches, UNIX hosts, or any device that can generate UDP network traffic on port 514. Once a message is received, the Syslog logs the message to file along with a timestamp and the IP Address of the device originating the message. The Syslog stores its data in weekly file increments with the same file name format as the other log type systems within WhatsUp Gold: 'SL-YYYY-MM-DD.tab'.
