cannot enable syslog device-id?

Nov 21, 2006 1 Replies

Hi all



I am logging a pix515 to a syslog server. I would like to set the logging device-id but the pix will not take the command>?



I believe the syntax should be # logging device-id pixname



Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?



Thanks



You did not indicate your PIX software version.

You need to be in configuration mode to enter the command -- the above makes it appear that you are in enable mode.

In the syntax of logging device-id, 'hostname' is a literal keyword. Your three choices are:

logging device-id hostname logging device-id ipaddress INTERFACENAME logging device-id string TEXT

where INTERFACENAME and TEXT are arbitrary, but everything else is literal.
