CiscoWorks and Syslog forwarding

chwilson0607

I am relatively new to CiscoWorks and am not quite sure which document to try and look up this information. Our company is using CW for switch configuration. Switches also send in their data via syslog. My question is: Is it possible to configure CW to forward the syslog data to another system? We have an enterprise security management system we would like to have this data sent to. Thanks.

It is not possible to configure CW to forward the syslog messages with a built in process,but you can configure the switches to send the syslog messages to more then one syslog server by adding onther target with

'logging host

This can be done using the Automated Action feature. See this thread for an example on how to create a script that can forward syslog messages:
