To Use Syslog for Monitoring a Palo Alto Networks firewall, create a Syslog server profile and assign it to the log settings for each log type. Optionally, you can configure the header format used in syslog messages and enable client authentication for syslog over TLSv1.2.
For CEF-formated syslog events collection, you must edit the default syslog configuration. The default syslog monitoring configuration is not supported for CEF syslog events collection.
