This paper will familiarize the reader with the basics of syslog as defined by RFC 3164, describe some variations of syslog as implemented by various network hardware vendors, provide an overview specifically of Kiwi's syslog utility and its' functionality, demonstrate basic configuration of the syslog utility, and finally provide examples of some advanced configurations of the syslog utility that will offer specific automated functionality tailored toward specific needs. Screenshots and other information will be presented in order to provide a clearer understanding of how to accomplish these tasks using the utility. After reading this document, a security professional should have a good understanding of how Kiwi's syslog utility could be implemented to provide an effective means of providing network information used for a wide range of tasks.
