Syslog Configuration

The Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller supports multiple syslog servers. As the number of active syslog increases, the performance level of the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller may decrease. Therefore, we recommend configuring no more than 8 syslog servers.

Set the following parameters to configure syslog servers:

1. address—Set the IPv4 address of a syslog server.
2. port—Set the port portion of the syslog server. The default is 514.
3. facility—Set an integer to identify a user-defined facility value sent in every syslog message from the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller to the syslog server. This parameter is used only for identifying the source of this syslog message as coming from the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller. It is not identifying an OS daemon or process. The default value for this parameter is 4. RFC 3164 specifies valid facility values.

   In software release versions prior to Release 1.2, the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller would send all syslog messages with a facility marker of 4.

4. system-log-level—Set which log severity levels write to the system log (filename: acmelog). The default is WARNING. Valid values are:

   • EMERGENCY | CRITICAL | MAJOR | MINOR | WARNING | NOTICE | INFO | TRACE | DEBUG | DETAIL
