Task 16: Configuring Logging (Optional)
The following configuration enables event logs to be sent to an external logging server using the SYSLOG protocol.
■ The Local event log verbosity setting controls the granularity of event logging. 1 is the least verbose, 4 the
most.
■ We recommend a minimum level of 2. This provides both system and basic signaling message logging.
The VCS Expressway needs further firewall / NAT configuration for external logging. See Appendix 3: Firewall and
NAT Settings, page 59 for details.
To configure a logging server:
1. Go to Maintenance > Logging.
2. Configure the fields as follows:
VCS Control VCS Expressway
Local event log verbosity 2 2
Remote syslog server 1: Address
Enter 10.0.0.13 Enter 10.0.0.13
Remote syslog server 1: Message Format IETF syslog format IETF syslog format
3. Click Save.
Task 17: Configuring Registration Restriction Policy (Optional)
You can limit the aliases that endpoints can register, using either an Allow list or a Deny list. This is an example of
how to configure Allow list registration restrictions:
1. Go to Configuration > Registration > Allow List.
2. Click New.
