Syslogd is a UNIX daemon that receives and locally logs, displays, prints, and/or

forwards messages that originate from sources internal and external to the

workstation. For example, Syslogd on a UNIX workstation concurrently handles

messages received from applications running on the workstation, as well as

messages received from Nortel Networks routers running in a network accessible

to the workstation.

Figure C-1

illustrates the following Syslog and Syslogd functionality:

Syslog running on each slot

• Polls the local events log buffer to retrieve new event messages

• Selects messages that meet the requirements of entity filters you configure on

the router

• Maps into Syslog message format messages retrieved from the local events

log

• Inserts a priority code into each reformatted message

• Time-sequences messages if you first enabled the message sequencing feature

• Forwards messages to IP on the router, which in turn forwards messages to

remote hosts identified in the Syslog host table

At a remote UNIX management workstation, Syslogd

• Receives Syslog messages from Nortel Networks routers

• Examines the priority code in each message

• Uses the priority code to determine appropriate system handling for each

message

• Based on the priority code in each message, dispatches each message to any

or all of the following destinations:

-- Workstation display

-- Local log file

-- Designated printer

-- One or more remote hosts
