Configure sending logs to remote syslog server missing
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Good morning. I recently purchased the above mentioned router and I am missing the option to send router logs to a remote syslog server located on the internet.
Is this feature available in this model?
Thank you.

Thank you for your reply but sending an e-mail with the log is not the same as sending events to a syslog server. A syslog server receives events as they happen and, as far as I know, it is not compatible with an e-mail system.
What I need is to configure the router to send events to a remote syslog server. I need to know if this is possible in this model.
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply, sorry to tell you that there is no option to satisfy your needs on the router.
The Archer C6 supports mail server(mail log feature) only now.
Good day.

Sending syslog messges from a network device(router/firewall) as well as SNMP to an internal syslog server should be an option on every device you sell. I assumed this was possible and just realized it is not. Noone should send syslog information across SMTP externally. That is sending your network information and data that could be used to expose your entire network to hackers out to the world. The problem is even worse as your device doesnt not support SSL or TLS for SMTP.
I am on A7 v5.0 HW version. How can we raise this as a feature request ?
