Syslog Host Filter List Parameters
This section describes the parameters in the Syslog Host Filter List window.
Parameter: Filter Entity Name
Default: None
Options: Any valid entity name
Function: Specifies the entity whose log messages you want to forward to the
remote host.
Instructions: Type the name of the entity whose log messages you want to forward to
the remote host. You can click on Values and select an entity name from
the list that appears. Also, Event Messages for Routers provides a
complete list of entity names.
If you select the entity name WILDCARD, syslog uses the parameters
that you specify for this filter only if no other operational filters exist for
the remote host. In such cases, syslog applies the filters of the wildcard
entity to all event messages regardless of the entity.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.3.2.15.3.1.4
Parameter: Filter Enable
Default: Enable
Options: Enable
| Disable
Function: Enables or disables the filter for the associated remote host.
Instructions: If you want the syslog facility to use this filter to determine which
messages to forward to the remote host, choose Enable. Otherwise,
choose Disable.
You can stop using this entity filter by deleting the filter. To do this, select
the filter in the Syslog Host Filter List window, and then click on Delete.
If you delete an entity filter and later decide you want to use that filter,
you must add the filter again.
