Export system logs to remote syslog servers

FortiExtender can forward system logs to remote syslog servers based on user configuration. In order for FortiExtender to forward system logs to a remote syslog server, the syslog server and FortiExtender's LAN port must be part of the same subnet.

Configure syslog database array

FortiExtender supports configuration of multiple syslog servers. The server array adds syslog database instead of plain text files.

config system syslog
    config remote-servers
        edit 1
            set ip 192.168.2.99
            set port 514
        next
        edit 2
            set ip 192.168.2.168
            set port 514
        next
    end
    config statistic-report
        set status disable
        set interval 30
        config cpu-usage
            set threshold 70
            set variance 5
        end
        config memory-usage
            set threshold 50
            set variance 5
        end
        config cpu-temperature
            set threshold 80
            set variance 5
        end
    end
