Viewing Cisco ACL logs

You can have your router forward the log messages to a syslog server. Use 'logging '

Doan

and to the same location if it's a syslog server using

"logging facility syslog"

what I meant to add was that Doan's example sends snmp-traps.

I was wrong. I now don't understand exactly what "logging facility syslog" actually does.

Damn, I was getting excited there, I though that I was going to find out something.

Back to the original question

snmp-server enable traps syslog - enable the transmission of snmp traps of syslog messages

Then you can set the level of events that are sent with

logg history [level]

Presumably if "log history level" is greater than "logg trap level" then since the messages have not been through syslog they won't get to the snmp server? Who knows?
