AdTran NetVanta AOS configuration

Prev Next

Follow these instructions to send logs from AdTran NetVanta AOS to the Comm Broker via syslog..

Prerequisites

  • AOS 12 or Higher

  • 1st Generation NetVanta 3200/3205 (1200860Lx and 1200870Lx)

Using the Web interface

Configuring logging via the Web Interface is supported in AOS firmware revisions 12 and higher. If your AOS device does not support AOS firmware revision 12, use the procedure in Using the command line interface.

  1. Enable logging:

    1. Click Logging under Utilities in the left menu.

    2. Select the Event History checkbox.

  2. Enable syslog:

    1. Click the Syslog Forwarding tab.

    2. Select the Syslog Forwarding checkbox.

  3. Configure syslog options:

    1. Choose a Syslog Forwarding Priority Level. Info (0) is the most verbose and fatal (5) is the least verbose. For general information about interface state changes and firewall messages, choose Notice (3).

    2. Enter the Syslog Receiver IP Address. This is the IP Address of the Trellix Comm Broker Sender.

    3. Choose a Logging Facility between Local 0 and Local 9. The logging facility level is an arbitrary value that can be used in the Syslog Server software for filtering.

    4. Click Apply.

  4. Save the configuration:

    • Click Save in the upper-right corner.

      Caution

      Not clicking Save will cause the router to lose your changes with the next reboot.

Using the command line interface

You can use the Command Line Interface (CLI) to configure syslog logging in all versions of AOS.

  1. Access global configuration code:

    1. Enter enable to enter privileged exec mode. You may be prompted for a password. If you do not know this password, see the “Password Recovery in AOS” guide.

    2. Enter configure terminal to access global configuration mode.

  2. Enter event-history on to enable event logging.

  3. Enter logging forwarding on to enable syslog logging.

  4. Configure syslog options:

    1. Enter logging facility local0 to set the logging facility. The logging facility option is used by the syslog server for filtering.

    2. Enter logging forwarding receiver-ip <ip-address> to set the IP address to which syslog entries should be forwarded (the Trellix Comm Broker Sender). For example, logging forwarding receiver-ip 192.168.1.1.

    3. Enter logging forwarding priority-level <priority-level> to set the priority level. The priority level options are error, fatal, warning, notice and info in ascending order of verbosity (that is, error is the least verbose and info is the most verbose). For example, logging forwarding priority-level notice.
