Hello Experts,
I can't get my router to log or syslog to a freeware KiwiSyslog monitoring software.
1- I can ping the syslog server from the router
2- The KiwiSyslog logs PIX syslog with no problem
3- This is the configuration I have on the router:
Router(config)# logging on
Router(config)# logging 1.1.1.1
Router(config)#logging trap informational
a- Router(config)# clock timezone CST -6
b- Router# clock set 10:50:00 Dec 26 2007
I'm puzzled experts..please help

1. This is sufficient for performing a packet capture, yes.
2. Simply enter config mode on the router, then exit, and a %SYS-5-CONFIG_I syslog message will be generated:
Router#config t
Router(config)#end
By default, IOS will send the syslog message using the local7 facility.

Enable a packet capture on the server side to see if the syslog UDP packets are reaching the server.
You can also try generating a syslog message with debug enabled to see if the message is getting sent.

Hi Davistan,
Thanks for the response.
1- To enable packet capture you mean a snifer like Wireshark/Ethereal?
2- How do I generat a syslog message with debug from the router?
I tried this command on the router and it didn't work: logging trap debug
(Side Note: If I use KiwiSyslogGenerator it works fine)

Thanks.
I added this to the router as well:
logging facility syslog
added the "log" to the acl and bingo everything working.
Thanks!
