  2. Enter the Target Server Profile Name.

  3. Enter the syslog server name or IP address.

    Note

    The length of server name has been increased to support up to 255 characters from 40 characters.

  4. Select TCP or UDP from the Protocol drop-down list.

    Note

    If you select the TCP protocol:

    • You will have to provide a certificate when you select the Use SSL checkbox.

    • Click Test Connection to check if the connection is successful. If a TCP server is down, at least five attempts will be made to ping the server before a fault is raised.

  5. Specify the port. By default, the port is set to 514.

  6. Click Save.

    Now you can select the server where you want to forward the alert.
