Syslog Forwarding Using Ethernet Interfaces
Use Ethernet interfaces, rather than the management interface,
to forward syslogs.
PAN-OS 10.0 enables syslog forwarding over
an Ethernet interface to optimize management operations. In an environment with
a high rate of log generation, you can forward logs over an Ethernet
interface to prevent loss of logs and to reduce the load on the
management interface.
Syslog forwarding uses an Ethernet interface
that is supported only for a Panorama™ management server in Panorama
mode or in Log Collector mode. Additionally, you can enable syslog
forwarding on only a single interface regardless whether the Panorama
management server is in Panorama mode or Log Collector mode.
- Configure an Ethernet interface for forwarding syslogs over an Ethernet interface.
- Configure an Ethernet interface on the local Log Collector.
- Selectand select an Ethernet interface.PanoramaSetupInterfaces
- Enable Interface.
- Configure the Ethernet interface as appropriate.
- In the Device Management Services section, enableSyslog Forwarding.
- SelectYesto confirm your syslog forwarding change.You can only a single Ethernet interface on the local Log Collector.
- ClickOKto save your changes.

- Configure an Ethernet interface on a Dedicated Log Collector.
- Selectand select a Dedicated Log Collector.PanoramaManaged Collectors
- Enable Interface.
- Configure the Ethernet interface as appropriate.
- In the Log Collection Services section, enableSyslog Forwarding.
- SelectYesto confirm your syslog forwarding change.You can only a single Ethernet interface on the Dedicated Log Collector.
- ClickOKto save your changes.
- Commitand thenCommit and Pushyour configuration changes.
- Configure a Collector Group—On the M-Series appliance, a default Collector Group is predefined and already contains the local Log Collector as a member. However, on the Panorama virtual appliance, you must add the Collector Group and add the local Log Collector as a member. For both configurations, you need to assign firewalls to a Log Collector for log forwarding.
